Aleon Craft - Brand New Day
Artist: Aleon Craft
Featuring: Young Scolla , Mikkey Halsted
Producer: SMKA
Album: The Stargazing Soundtrack
Label: SMKA Productions, LLC
Resting on one’s laurels can be a dangerous thing, but there’s nothing wrong with taking a moment to celebrate how far you’ve come – especially when the result of said celebration is as dope as Brand New Day, the latest mixtape leak from Decatur representative Aleon Craft. 808 Experience beatsmith SMKA sets a blissfully mellow mood with a lush string-piano sample as Aleon reminisces about a time when he had nothing but “a dollar and a dream” For the second and final verses, Motown native Young Scolla and Windy City phenom Mikkey Halsted jump on board to tell equally fresh stories of well-earned success, the latter dropping some killer opening line: “There was a time when I wasn’t the man / Nah, I’m lying, I’ve always been flyer than Peter Pan.” As refreshing as ice-cold lemonade on a sweltering day, this breezy joint will be included on Craft’s Mick Boogie/Terry Urban-mixed The Stargazing Soundtrack, set to drop soon on DJBooth. Those lucky enough to be in A-town this Saturday night should head down to the Star Bar to catch the latest show in Aleon’s Atlanta Stargazing Tour, featuring Vonnegutt, Sean Falyon and more!

Man, Aleon Craft's featured records just keep getting better and better. He continues to impress. Great selection of similar up-n-coming emcees. It is indeed a brand new day... with a nice soundtrack to it.

The more Aleon I listen to, the more I'm liking everything he does. So either the man's music is brainwashing me, or it's dope. I'm leaning towards the latter - especially when back by SMKA and verses from Scolla and Mikkey. Dope.
p.s. - Sorry for the incorrect link. It's been fixed.
