Down With Webster - Royalty
Producer: Zale Epstein and Brett Ryan Kruger
Album: Time To Win, Vol. II
Label: Unsigned
At first blush, being Royalty sounds like a great time—prestige, financial security, if you get married it inexplicably becomes a global news story. With great power, however, comes great resentment (not to speak of the inbreeding and frequent beheadings). Case in point: the female described in Down With Webster‘s first Booth feature. The latest single off the Toronto-repping rap-rockers’ first full-length album, the record finds co-producers Zale Epstein and Brett Ryan Kruger hooking up with instrumentalists Tyler Armes, Diggy, Pat and Marty to craft a slow-burning, Chipmunk-soul-meets-grunge-pop backdrop as emcees Cam and Bucky pillory a chick whose financial security and sheltered upbringing allow her to “wear [her] bad habits like a crown.” Brimming with quotable kiss-offs ( “Getting lit up’s the only thing that’s relevant / when all that’s in your closet is designer or a skeleton.”), this slow-burning banger is just one of many quality jams to be found on DWW’ latest full-length, Time To Win, Vol. II, scheduled to hit record stores and online retailers on October 31.

Was just recently introduced to the music of Down With Webster and almost instantly I was impressed with their clear crossover sound. The rap/rock hybrid has come and gone in waves with the trends of today, but DWW seems capable of bucking and current day fad. They feel authentic to me. Plus the production and live instrumentation alone are a good sell job.

Interesting. Cool beat, but the verses sound like they are missing something. Maybe its just not my style, but this did not resonate with me.

This song has a sick beat. I like their crossover which they did really well i think. The rap/rock feel that down with webster is doing now seems right and sounds good.

Hurting song.. Hopefully the writer can forgive and let go of his anger and resentment. Jack Layton’s last words: ‘Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear’
