Cymarshall Law - Harder Than Thou
Artist: Cymarshall Law
Producer: D-Slaps
Album: Creator's Kid EP
Label: HipNott Records
Forgiving and forgetting may be good for your blood pressure, but there’s something to be said for letting a grudge age like fine wine. Just ask CyMarshall Law; who, since entering the music game, has seemingly built up enough bile for a lifetime of dry heaves. Harder Than Thou, the lead single off the forthcoming Creator’s Kid EP, finds the Jersey native spitting one impressively thorough litany of grievances – in addition to taking on obvious targets like haters, rival emcees and unsupportive DJs, Law vents his spleen at bad weather, public transportation and anyone who ever failed to call him back after he submitted a job application (to name just a few). Beatsmith D-Slaps backs the emcee’s furious rhymes with some fittingly forceful boardwork, serving up a sample from soul singer Eddie Kendricks’ classic cut, If You Let Me before segueing into a pounding keyboard/percussion groove, and DJ JS-1 tops it all off with some authentic guest cuts. If this cathartic jam strikes a chord, be sure and pick up a copy of CyMarshall’s latest EP, when it drops January 19, 2010.

One of my favorite artists of 2009 for a few reasons. 1) Cy sounds like nobody else (this is a big one). 2) When Cy raps it sounds like he actually gives two sh*s. 3) The passion for his craft is evident in every single solitary rhyme he spits.
All three of these fine attributes are on display in "Harder Than Thou." |

Cy is incredibly talented, for those who haven't checked him yet. I have at least one of his tracks on just about every playlist I've made lately ("King with Four Wives" is a staple). This track is no different.

WOW! Cy just brought some real music to my ears, where rappers put all they got into their lyrics (I was starting to go num with all the Gucci Mane/Birdman tracks I've been hearing). The passion and hunger was so evident in his voice, which is unique on its own. The beat was dope as well, I love the scrathes and samples which you never hear in mainstream rap.

Damn, sick track. The beat's ill and the scratches by DJ JS-1 take it to another level. HoamBoy called the rhymes on this "hungry" and I couldn't have said it better. The man cares about his craft and it shows. I won't be forgetting CyMarshall's voice anytime soon.

Yo Cy, you angry son??? I love the passion, you definately put it out on this one. Nah... you are NOT a Carrie Underwood, and you are very much understood. This is my new flavor cuz Cy coming off like a stud that don't give a phuk about a hug.
