The Free

One thing we can all agree on that the rap game is missing is lyrical Rappers. It was such an honor doing this review because the hiphop collective "The Free" do not disappoint. Coming straight outta Philly with one goal in mind, to become the next hottest rap group. Influenced by some of the greatest rap groups to hit the industry such as The Lox & State Property. "The Free" has recently dropped they newest single "Shook One Freestyle". A 12 minute bar for bar lyrical cypher over the classic "Shook One" instrumental. From start to finish they completely murdered this beat. Every artist within the group has style, delivery, & pen game. I rate this single 5 outta 5 Flames! Most known lyrical rap groups have now taking a backseat to the music industry. "The Free" is what's needed in the rap game right now. #BringingRealBarsBack! Click the link below to listen to "The Free" latest single "Shook One Freestyle".

Man Down!

Residing all the way from Toledo, Ohio artist M.I.D.W.A.Y has decided to present us with his brand new single "Man Down". A catchy club/trap banger that represents the hardcore street life of a hustler. One that is strictly about his money but will not hesitate to put a "Man Down" if respect is not given. The beat on this single is on another level, specifically when the hook drops. It gives it an anthem type feel. Adding the hardcore delivery from M.I.D.W.A.Y is what makes it attention grabbing on the ears. Tho M.I.D.W.A.Y is very skilled on the mic, his ultimate goal is to become a successful recording engineer in all fields (music, movies, tv shows, radio, etc...). Inspired by artist such as Wale, 2pac, J Cole, Drake, Young Jeezy & Lauren Hill... he decided to pick up a mic & pursue a music career as well. Presenting a hit single like "Man Down" is the perfect start. This single is no doubt deserving of a rating 5 outta 5 Flames! You can Listen, like & share the hit single below.

Twelve on Sunday

Twelve on Sunday is an incredible song by artist Jay Elle. Singing about his history he once shared with a girl who he deeply cares for. It seems as if he's curious of her whereabouts & wonders about her recent actions. He also explains that this girl likes to do anything she feel that may get her in trouble. Could this be the reason she's no longer around? This single left me with many unanswered questions as a story was revealed in my ears through melody. What ever happened to the girl? For that reason is why I'm in deep hopes for a part two. A beautiful guitar playing in the background, with smooth & passionate lyrics by Jay Elle. 4 out of 5 Flames is the rating I feel this single deserves.
