The ability to stay optimistic in spite of setbacks and self-doubt is practically a prerequisite to success, particularly in the fickle music game. Baltimore’s 810 is well aware of the importance of maintaining a Glass Half Full attitude, and, on the first official leak off his forthcoming, illroots/2DopeBoyz/DJBooth.net-cosponsored street album, the up-and-comer invites listeners to take The Oath that keeps him going when life starts to feel like a bad joke: simply live, learn and remain determined to get it right regardless of how many times you have to try. 810’s tenacity and positivity have certainly yielded big returns in the skills department; over Mydus’ bouncy, string-accompanied synth groove, he spits a dense, intricately-rhymed brand of braggadocio sure to get the thumbs-up from our resident lyrical heads. Fans can find The Oath, Booth-approved track U Wont Like This, and much more on 810’s Glass Half Full mixtape, set to hit the ‘net sometime next month.

A head-nodder indeed. If you LOVE hip-hop and its original sound, "The Oath" is for you. 810 has a powerful effect on the mic and continues to grow as an emcee every time I hear a new song from his stocked up catalog. This new project will (hopefully) go a long way in revealing his talents to a larger (and appreciative) audience.

BMORE STAND UP!
anyways, this track is nice, consistant flow sounding perfect on the production. chorus isn't fantastic, that's why it lacks a star. |

This production is DOPE and OLD-SCHOOL at the same time. Reminds me of a beat Tribe Called Quest or De la Soul would spit on. 810 more than hold his own on the beat.

The production is energetic and creative and the old school flavor on the beat is very welcomed!
And 810 runs a workshop on how to ride a beat by mixing a positive message with confident delivery and clever word play. Hook is on-point. I’m really anticipating this project, it’s looking quite promising and also lookin forward to Mydus produced joints for Mike Dreams ... 3.5 |

haha, i didnt see your comment Babii Boi, Im glad im not going insane.
The funny thing is that De La sampled that Xmas song on one of their albums, so I can see why cubdex said it sounds like a beat they would flow on.

When the beat dropped I was thinking, dam this is gonna be tight. Loved that little synth bounce. His rapping was not a disappointment either but it sounds kind of like "typical rap", nothing about it really stood out. And yes I agree with you D Mac, gimme a little christmas song sample hahaha
