Boaz - Crazy World ft. Josh Everette
Artist: Boaz
Producer: Johnny Juliano
Album: The Audiobiography
Label: Rostrum Records
If you gave Boaz the chance, he’d probably talk your ear off about everything wrong with our world. Save your time and just watch a little CNN. During commercial breaks, however, feel free to tune into the Pittsburgh’s rapper’s new single, Crazy World, for an alternative take on things. Boaz covers everything from coke deals to the Iraq War, never missing a chance to complain about the powers that be. Producer Johnny Juliano, the man responsible for Wiz Khalifa’s trance-rap success, handles the beat, borrowing a catchy little piano melody from disco-soul artist Jamiroquai’s ‘96 hit, Virtual Insanity. Fellow Steel City native Josh Everette takes care of the laid-back hook. Crazy World will appear on Boaz’s upcoming album, The Audiobiography (Fall ‘08).

This dude needs to work on his flow. He can not rap. At All. Not even alil bit. I'm not a hater though. The production is good, reminds me of a MoS Def type track. He woulda murked this beat.

Haha, LOVE the Jamiroquai sample, that used to be my jam when I was a kid! That alone scores points on this one, along wit the rest of the production. Boaz or his flow don't really fit on this track though, it almost sounds like these are verses taken from another song and put into this one. I dont know, something is off. But still a pretty good track.

LOL 412 [Pittsburgh] IS TRYING TO GET ON THE MAP!!! Johnny Juliano is definitely doing his thing these days. I could see him becoming an elite producer down the line if not in within this year. I usually dont like Boaz's material but this is decent. Huge Jamiroquai fan so points for the sample also.

Yeah yeah, the sample is good. Juliano is sick with the 90's samples. Boaz and the track don't necessarily feel like the perfect fit (maybe, Wiz?), but overall I like what he is saying. He has more room for growth and tracks like this are a great start.

bdf44 is right , his flow is slow , like he has to read it from a paper, while recording, like the beat, but something is missing. Sounds like background music, when the club is closing..lol

Nice beat and good flow by him! The overall song is a bit boring, though. Pretty song but not one which catched me

MY GOODDNESS! The sample is way too sick1 What they know bout dat Jamiroquai?! LOL. This is hot. From start to finish. This is super soulful and Boaz has a smooth, sincere flow. I don't know what you guys are hearing...what does people always want jumpy club songs instead of a soulful, smooth joint just to vibe out to for a change? LOL. Sit down somewhere and relax a second...dang. I agree his flow could have been a little more exciting though. You know who would've smashed this song? BLU! Look him up. I had been hearing about him for about a year, but was too lazy to check him out. I finally did this week and he's a beast on the microphone. Boaz's flow reminded me of him a tad bit. This is smooth though. I'm digging it.
