Brownsville, Brooklyn rapper Astro may not have gone on to clench victory on the first season of The X Factor USA, but the teen spitter has gone on to clench numerous other victories including a record deal with Epic Records and even a cameo on CBS’ Person Of Interest. For his Booth debut and the first single from his forthcoming mixtape, Astro lets his absentee father have it on the self-produced Deadbeat. The former music reality competition star doesn’t hesitate in expressing the fact that if his father was aware of his present-day success he likely would have stuck around as he spits, “I’m going extra over beats because I know you watching me/ Fathers, never leave your kids because you never know what they’ll grow up to be.” Although his Epic Records debut may still be in the works, the Brooklyn-based DJBooth newcomer fully plans on releasing his indie mixtape in the near future.

Poor Astro! If you got stories of your pops then he is not a deadbeat. Be happy he put one in your muddah so you could sing this song. Disrespecting your father for any reason be he present or not is a sign of self hate. But I blame Astro's momma, bet she was like "yo daddy ain't ish, write a song about him." Thank god mother Mary wasn't a trifling baby momma cuz Jesus would have been one angry dude singing songs like this.

Pretty nice production from him. Its really unique, almost has an old school feel. He has a really nice flow for a kid too and lines. Sounds like hes been rapping for years.
