Yesterday, when I referred to Muggsy Malone‘s Be Alright as “one of the most successful Booth debuts in recent memory,” there was another name that was right on the tip of my tongue… catalyst?  Impetus?  Oh, that’s right: Cause!  Back in mid-June, the Bronx up-and-comer introduced himself with In Too Deep, a cut that dazzled readers and left the artist seeing stars (4.25, to be exact).  Though still In A Daze from his first feature’s massive impact, the rapper’s back to repeat his success with the first leak off his forthcoming mixtape. This time around, Cause spins a piano/string-driven beat by Sean Ross into a dreamy ode to the glitz and glamour of musical success—think Superstar, but lighter on the whole tortured artist/internal conflict thing.  Packed with starstruck yet swagger-drenched lyricism, this track seems destined to elicit another figurative meteor shower of rave reviews.  For more from this promising up-and-comer, check out his forthcoming, DJBooth.net-sponsored I Am Us mixtape, set to hit our front page sometime this fall.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on August 3, 2009

Cause continues to impress me with his DJBooth submissions. Thus far he is two-for-two. Just like with "In Too Deep," Cause holds his own and then some.

We've yet to come across producer Sean Ross, but he too impresses.

Ever since I've heard this track, its been in rotation and its rare that a song can grow so quickly on me and join the ranks of established favorites. I especially connect with the artist because he properly represents The Bronx, banger.
