On his last feature, Life I Live, C-Murder painted a bleak portrait of his day-to-day existence in Louisiana’s Angola Prison, where he is serving a life sentence for second-degree murder. Despite the present darkness, however, the veteran rapper holds out hope for a brighter Tomorrow, as he explains on the second single and title track off his forthcoming full-length. Over producer T-Rhythm‘s somber, acoustic guitar-driven instrumental, C-Murder balances gritty realism with glass-half-full positivity (“How many n*ggas you know that go to jail and still get a record deal?”), concluding that even “...if tomorrow never comes, at least a n*gga tried.” Topped off with the mournful chorus vocals of singer B Steezy, the track should be a hit with C-Murder’s devotees, as well as new fans who appreciated the hard-bitten honesty he brought to his last feature. If you’re digging it, you’ll be able to pick up a copy of Tomorrow (the album) on June 15, when it hits record stores and online retailers via 48 Tracks Entertainment/Tru Records .

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on May 31, 2010

I hate to say it, but since Murder got locked up he has been en fuego inside the Booth (this is his second quality feature at our site).

Since we know he is capable of making great music without having to be behind bars, my reasoning is of course flawed, but I have no doubt that if the new album is 12-14 songs deep with tracks like "Tomorrow" he will be happy to hear that fans are pleased with the release.

The somber backdrop fits the general theme of the record very well. Everything from Murder's inspired storytelling to Breezy's ear pleasing contribution on the chorus is above average.

Not a C-Murder fan, but damn this is deep ish. Sometimes you gotta be at the bottom to be able to gain some perspective on life and realize how to put to use your best abilities and hopefully pull yourself out of your situation.

For C, its the realization that if those abilities are not enough to amount to a solution, based on the circumstances he created for himself at least he has no regrets.

And to this fool that gave it one star: I don't take the word of anyone seriously who disrepects himself enough to call themself "chicken rice 101"

“How many n*ggas you know that go to jail and still get a record deal?”

Um, other than Gucci, Wayne, Shyne, Boosie, and about 3,000 more? I can't think of any.

Literal interpretations of lines aside, once again we get an emotionally charged performance from C-Murder that's a little lacking in the lyrical content department. I have to hand it to the man, he's overcoming a lot of odds to keep making quality music. Nothing but respect.

One thing that can always be said about Murder is that he always brings a sense of great passion to his songs. Lyrics were deep and heartfelt. B. Steezy's vocals some kind of annoying in some instances, but he was a good contribution to the song.

Drenched in the smooth production by T-Rhythm, (consisting of a sick acoustic guitar) this track won me over. Here's hoping Murder can keep up his streak of great music.
