100dBs & Ryan-O'Neil - Power For The People
Artist: 100dBs & Ryan-O'Neil
Producer: 100dBs
Album: Tea & Spliffs
Label: HiPNOTT Records
Rap PSA time: Emcees, if you use production that features a sample from a legend in the game, then y’all better really come with it. Need an example? How about 100dbs & Ryan O’Neil’s latest single Power To The People, which draws its foundation from the legendary Curtis Mayfield’s record of the same name. 100dBs, who handles the boardwork, cooks up an understated, vintage production that is littered with Mayfield’s sultry vocals and a few other well placed samples. The New Yorker’s well-composed, dynamic boardwork is a perfect match with O’Neil’s understated, yet quirky and captivating flow that dives headfirst into the type of astute social commentary that would make Mayfield proud. Want more power? Then be sure to check out the dynamic duo’s album Tea & Spliffs album, set for release later this month via HiPNOTT Records .

Good flow on this, but not really digging the beat. Just doesn't work together for me.

The beat is really simple but I'm feeling the delivery from both 100dBs and Ryan O'Neil. I like the message too.. power to the people!

Nothing too special happening here. Good delivery from both emcees and I appreciate the message surrounding this one. Beat was very simple, but that can sometimes be a good thing.
