To know me, is to know I have a deep, strong love for hip hop that goes back to my childhood in the South Bronx.�� I love lyricism, and loathe BS lyrics.�� The actual art of hip hop infatuates me, and U am always hungry to hear artist who respect the craft.

As of January, I literally live with hip hop music being created all day in my brother’s studio.�� Artists come through daily with beats and rhymes, and they all think they are killing it.�� Some are actually good. Some, well��� I don’t want to be mean, so I’ll say, some are just not so good.�� I���m super skeptical about anyone who speaks too big about their skills.�� Let the lyrics speak. ��My love for hip hop art, coupled with being in this constant studio environment, has fine-tuned and primed my ears for good hip hop.

I say all of that to say this: I found some good hip hop.

@Malika_Polter just put me on to Preach Muzak.���� When I say just, I mean literally, about an hour before I started writing this. The first song I listened to was “Eighty Six.”�� The beat was classic, laid back, drive-down-the-block-with-the-windows-open, dope!�� Then he started rhyming, and I was done!�� I stopped what I was doing, and started listening to his Youtube channel. ��I downloaded The Rising Trilogy Vol 1 as well.

This dude is nice.

And say word – dude is nice to look at, on top of being lyrical.�� Stop it!�� That���s like finding a unicorn.�� There���s only a few.�� Nas, and Common, immediately come to mind. Kendrick is up there too. The above��pic is cute, but does not do him complete justice.�� Ladies, look at the videos.

On my hip hop score card he gets one star each for��voice, lyrics, content, delivery/cadence, and beat.�� Five star rapper.�� Dig that.

I wish this brother the best.�� It can be hard out here for a lyricist, in America these days. ��Rappers who spit something you actually want to slow down and listen to. I���m mad that I���m just now finding out about him.�� I would love to interview him, and pick his brain about his concepts and his writing process.

If you are a true hip hop fan, I���d highly recommend Preach Muzak.��Get him in your life ASAP!

You can download him here.

Thank you for reading!

Peace.
