AWKWORD - A Tribute to My Mommy
Artist: AWKWORD
Producer: ATG
Album: World View
Label: Sub-City Productions
Showing love to one’s mother is a theme that’s run heavily throughout hip-hop. From Tupac’s Dear Mama to Kanye West’s Hey Mama, nearly every rapper finds their way to jotting down at least a line or two – if not several verses or an entire song – paying tribute to the woman from which they came. AWKWORD’s Thank You (A Tribute To My Mommy) is not just your normal homage to the maternal figure in his life as it was written at her bedside while she was losing her fight with breast cancer, eventually passing on the second day of this year. The song was recorded and played for her before her passing and AWKWORD credits her as being his biggest supporter and influence. With more and more things taking up our time, taking a moment to call or see our mothers for a quick hug or “I love you” should always be on our “to-do” lists. For more from the NYC emcee keep an ear out for his upcoming World View album, dropping soon via The DJBooth.

I can't bring myself to like him. Sorry. The feel of this track is nice, though.

This is AMAZING. So heartfelt. Almost made ME cry. And to me, this shows AWKWORD's versatility -- take a song like this, and compare it to the last one I listened to, "Metal Music", and you can get a sense of what makes AWK different from the norm.
