CyHi The Prynce - Sidewayz
Artist: CyHi The Prynce
Producer: Ensayne Wayne
Album: Untitled (TBD)
Label: G.O.O.D. Music/Def Jam
As you may have guessed from the title, new street single Sidewayz finds I Can’t Tell emcee CyHi the Prynce putting a hip-hop spin on Sideways, the critically-acclaimed 2004 film which followed two middle-aged men on a life-changing road trip through the wine country of Santa Barbara… hey, where’s everyone going? OK, OK, I lied; in actuality, this cut finds the Konvict/Def Jam signee telling off his growing coterie of haters. Over the street-ready strings and sci-fi synths of producer Ensayne Wayne (Drumma Boy‘s older brother), CyHi exercises his gruff Southern flow, threatening to steal his critics girlfriends and informing his fans that he hasn’t given up the dope game: “I sell it but I shouldn’t / if I was rich trust me I wouldn’t.” If you’re digging this hard-nosed jam, keep it locked to you-know-where – the Georgia native’s debut full-length has neither a title nor a release date, but rest assured we’ll keep you posted.

We've been up on CyHi for more than a year now, so its no surprise that he has finally started to see some traction both online and in the streets. With a distinct vocal ability, some catchy production behind him, and something to say on the mic he has solid future. I put him in the same lane as Pill; an artist from the South with actual lyrical ability and finesse.

Good production, Drumma Boy's brother did good on this, kinda sounds like something Drumma woulda done himself. The flow in the first verse is really ill. Chorus is catchy, but it's not a sellout song. The rest of the song doesn't match the first vere to me though. I'll give a few spins though.

Whoahthis really did it for me, I see what you're saying when it needs more production, I agree they gotta bring another beat in for the next verse but honestly it's awesome as this as well, loving it!!

CyHi is soaring Hi with this track! He had my attention from the start with his start catchy flow. Ensayne Wayne produced a hot beat for B.o.B on his new album so you already know he can hold it down for his fellow Dirty South artists. I was suprised how good his lyrics were for a Southern artists because that is what many of the artists down south are lacking. He flows with the beat really well. Just imagine how many heads you would be turning by slapping this in your whip. Impressive song!

He brought the heat as soon as the track began! He has a sick and quick flow...and what I was impressed with the most was how the first verse was delivered fast and then he slowed it down on the second verse and still came correct.
Production and hook were a good combination together even if the hook lacked anything other then "them haters looking at me sideways". I'm definately not on of those haters because he did a superb job and even if this probably won't gain much mainstream attention...it still is a good look for him. |

If DJ Kidd was here he's say something about the mix, and he'd be kind of right, but in all honesty this is the track that really won me over to Prince. Replace the hook and you've got another dope emcee from the south making noise.

First thing first, that violin in the beginning instantly made me a firm believer in Ensayne Wayne's producing capabilities. Prince Chyi, has an above average lyrical flow that really helped me focus on him rather than the production, which was spectacular.
First verse, Prince did a very good job, but the second verse really had me guessing. I prefer when he raps fast, as the second verse was anything but amazing. All together, would I play this again? While the hook and second verse could use work, that first verse and production have me leaning towards a solid yes. |

What a track. I love it. Just a little off classic. 4.5 rounding down.

Dude's flow and wordplay are nice. The production definitely resembles Drumma Boy in a way. Looking to hear more from both of these guys.

Not really my style and the beat is a bit too repetitive. The hook doesn't make me like it any better. Could do better.

It's alright, but it was lacking in the production and the hook could have been better.

Violins were nice but still beat has overall a typical Drumma Boy sound. Prince was better (especially that first verse). It has it’s moments but it’s just an average track, content is nothing out of the ordinary, but it is listenable. 2.5

That percussion in the background is fresh for this type of sound, the strings are always a nice feature, so it's a nice production.
Really the chorus is the section that needed extra work. The verses are your average south swag! |

This dude is nice! Replace the instrumental with something banger status. His flow on this remind me of Dr. Dre's track "forget About Dre".

Prynce's pen game is something serious. Definitely one of the top 5 artists coming out of the South, a game changer that can go toe to toe with any one else in the game. Will be very happy when the label decides to make him a priority.
