“I’m winning like I’m super, you see what I’m saiyan”

Hip Hip is usually present day either very lyrical hardcore hip hop or trap bass heavy with minimalist lyrics coming from the pen. Very rarely are the two fused and if it’s done its not up to par. Jason Greensocks is the artist to bring the two together as he drips nothing but sauce on his new track “Collected”

Jason Greensocks takes full control over this trap heavy beat instead of letting the beat make him. He flows with nothing but confidence and right in the perfect pocket as he meshes with the production. Jason is no slouch on the mic either as his lyrics pack nothing but punch as he spits hard lines that make you say “Did he really say that” with bars like “Ain’t called no uber for ya chick, but can you please come get her back”

“young n**ga trying to make the picture clear”

Monday Madness is still going as I give you the best of the best every Monday. This track I’m bringing you is all around fresh with dope lyrics, a flipped Willie Hutch sample with a banging set of synths and keys to knock it out park. The track I’m bringing to you is an artist who been scheming since 95′ named James Wesson with his new track “MAGIC”.

James Wesson snaps all over the track “MAGIC” with a calculated flow that makes sure every bar hits with precision. James Wesson’s lyrics are hard over this production that is self produced with Dave MacLean on the bass on a beat that takes me back to Diplomatic Immunity. 

James Wesson’s “MAGIC” is full of quotables like “Ghost Rider I just need a fuego bike, I already got flames up in the mind” as he raps like he’s trying to take over the world and he very well may one day.

As soon as I seen a new Ghostface Killah project “The Lost Tapes” dropped I instantly hit play and let the project flow as I read the titles and features as it played. Immediately once I got too track eight “Done It Again” my eyes lit up as soon as I seen “featuring Big Daddy Kane”. A true pioneer I always go at bat for whenever the whose better Rakim or Big Daddy Kane debate comes up. I’ll always say “Long Live the Kane” in that debate. Not only does he have Big Daddy Kane but the legendary Wu member Cappadonna as well as Styliztik Jones, and Harley.

Ghostface Killah kicks off this superfly track as he floats on this Uptown Saturday Night feel production with his lavish rhymes he’s known for like “Come on now, we can spend Arabian Nights, I could take you to the Mosque and we can pray all night”. Ghostface and Harley rock the chorus that sounds as flavorful as the wallaby’s with the cream on it.

Styliztik Jones comes in and shows on his own packing just as much bravado established in the first verse with slick wordplay like “Feelings in my heart as deep as the Phantom of the Opera, Heal me with wit’cho cookin, You can be my doctor” that meshes well deep in the horns and soul sample.

Cappadonna comes in after the hook and raps as well as he ever has since we first got a glimpse of him spitting flames in clothing store in the “Ice Cream Man” video. Like wine his flow is fluid and gets better with time with a verse filled with quotes like “My game is good but my rap is disgustin”

Right before the grand finale the greatest hypeman Flavor Flav and Danny Ray come in to let you know “the subject is real hip hop” before the legendary Big Daddy Kane comes in like the smooth operator he is spitting golden like he’s in his “It’s a Big Daddy Thing” days with nothing short of masterful articulate lyricism as he tells a story of about a woman getting lost in the world bringing to the conclusion “It’s kinda sad to see what money did to ya, I wish that we could take it back to the way I knew ya”
