Bossman - Off the Record (Pt. 2)
Artist: Bossman
Producer: Rich Nieze [for One Up Entertainment]
Album: The Re-Up
Label: One Up
Missing from the Booth’s rotation for a while, listener favorite Bossman is back! Now signed to MySpace/Interscope and preparing to drop debut album The Re-Up, the Baltimore native is going Off the Record for Part 2 of his ‘04 underground hit. After addressing his problems with former boss Jermaine Dupri (Bossman could see the failure of Island Urban Music coming from two states away), he proceeds to air his every grievance with the game; over the course of the record, he demands respect for MJ, admits he’s not a fan of Jay-Z‘s D.O.A., suggests Drake ghostwrite for his boss, blasts the industry double standard that gets Chris Brown blacklisted while R. Kelly is let off easy, and explains why he’s no longer concerned about getting played anywhere. Backed by a Rich Nieze-produced beat featuring a sample from Pac‘s role in Juice, this track may be a little too contentious for mainstream radio, but it’s sure to earn heavy rotation from the many DJs who frequent this site.

Wow. Ya need two or three listens to fully grasp everyone and their mother that was put on blast here.
Bossman has been slept on by most of the country for roughly 6 years now. Hopefully, sooner rather later, things will change. The Boss will be in our freestyle series next month! PS. Juice is one of my TOP 5 favorite movies of all-time. Anyone else? |

that sample was perfect to use in the production. I don't agree wit half of the complaints he makes about those in the industry, but everyone is entitled to their opinion. He did go hard and get some ish of his chest, so props for that.

I should have waited to rate this, this mf is going off on people. I love it! Honesty is needed, not just rappers hating to get a name, honest opinion, without a filter. This is a 4.5 for that alone. My bad! too late to rerate!

... even if some of the lyrics are questionable (as Juanito_88 points) I enjoyed it pretty much.

Love the creativity with the honest lyrics. He's snatching peeps up by the collar for real. Lettin' em know he's not down wit that industry ish. I like it! Gutsy - but he's right, this may not get a lot of spin.

Never heard of dude before but it don't even matter. Truth is truth and I believe that is what we have here. Raw emotion thrown into a Mic and pouring out the speakers.
