It’s common for artists to rep their hometowns, but on his current single NYC (off his Stay Hungry mixtape), Clap Cognac seems to pay homage to only the bad side of New York City.  “Clap” being an acronym for “Camouflage Lodge Attacking Problems,” Cognac is known for addressing social issues in his rhymes.  With a head-banging beat over a soft, angelic voice in the background, Cognac does just that: referencing the thugs, drugs, and crooked cops in New York, but also taking note of the musical talents that have come out of the city.  Regardless of the city’s flaws, however, Cognac claims that he will rep NYC until he dies.

Straight east coast hip hop flow man. I can dig it. Production is solid. Usually, East Coast tracks are laced pretty well, they just don't always excite me.

I have received LOTS of complaints that we do not feature enough East Coast music. I think that is complete bulls*hit, but I am open to whatever makes our members happy. This is some solid EC music. He is being courted by the majors... heavy!

Lyrics are tight and flows nice. The beat fits but it sounds like it took 15 minutes to make...i guess simplicity just works sometimes

The beat is HOT but let me say this, the overall song is a bit repetitive! It never changes! The beat is one of those ones that drives me crazy lol

The production is on point to a certain extent. It needs a break down some where.

This is just okay. The "drumline" beat is a little irritating. I cannot say it enough, this Hip Hop genre is losing it's originality. P. Diddy already said how grat New York was on Jermaine Dupri's "Welcome to Atlanta" remix. I don't need a new guy to tell me about that New York is a place where you should be safe...I guess there was nothing else for him to rap about so he decided to play it safe. He missed the mark for me.
