D-Black - No Ordinary Love
Artist: D-Black
Producer: Illmind
Album: Blaps, Rhymes & Life (Pt. 4)
Label: Unsigned
Breaking up is always hard; even if two people are miserable together, ripping off that band-aid is guaranteed to cause some degree of pain and suffering. Just ask Bronx emcee and exclusive freestyle series participant D-Black (not to be confused with D.Black), who tells the story of a fairytale romance that turned into the relationship from hell on No Ordinary Love, the latest single off beatsmith Illmind‘s new Blaps, Rhymes & Beats (Vol 4) mixtape. Backed by the Jersey producer’s tension-fraught synth/organ boardwork (featuring a hook sampled from Sade’s track of the same name), Black details his former girl’s descent into paranoia and plate-slinging violence, concluding, “If I had a mulligan, I would leave shorty at first sign she just might pull a Jaz Sullivan.” It’s harrowing stuff, but the ultimate effect is cathartic, and the track should strike a chord with those who’ve found themselves in similar situations – and if you currently are in a similar situation, for the love of God, get out! For more hot beats and high-caliber collaborations, grab a copy of Illmind’s latest street album, released today and available now online.

Anyone who samples one of my FAVORITE Sade songs of all-time must be very careful to do so in a musically-respectful manner (sidebar: Sade's new single is supposed to arrive my inbox later tonight, whoo hooo).
D-Black and Illmind come through on their end, and although this isn't better than the song that is sampled, who was comparing the two in the first place - right? |

D.Blacks been all over the internet..I can definitely respect his grind. This song is another good example of a good D.Black song and Illmind does his thing on the beat.

First, D. Black and D-Black need to arm wrestle for the name. I can't begin to tell you how many times people have gotten them confused.
Second, I'm with Z. Any Sade sample is good by me, especially when Black overlays it with such real life lyrics. |

How can you go wrong with a Sade sample? I was already loving it before the lyrics began to flow but D-Black didn't disappoint.
