Every so often a track comes along that put you into a trance, subconsciously forcing you to nod your head and tap your foot. Case in point: the supremely smooth Empty Paradise, a fresh track by newcomer Dre-Ski that’s also a DJBooth exclusive. Thanks in no small part to almost absurdly cool funk-soul production from J Cole, who just graced us with his highly rated solo effort Lights Please, and featuring a verse from up-and-coming D.C. rapper Marky, Empty Paradise is first and foremost a showcase for the lyrical abilities of Dre-Ski, a Virginia born emcee whose verses are the perfect blend of swagger and laid-back cool (think a slightly harder Pharrell as a comparison). Empty Paradise is part of a currently unnamed project, but those digging Dre-Ski’s subtle style can download his new mixtape Follow Me, and of course keep it locked to DJBooth.net.

To quote our very own Nathan S., who couldn't have wrote it any better: "Every so often a track comes along that put you into a trance, subconsciously forcing you to nod your head and tap your foot." And, now I rate...
Shouts to Marky, J. Cole, and Judah. |

Yeah, this is a pretty smooth flowing song. The production really sounded nice Dre-Ski showed his skills. He might be on the come-up.

Being a listener and a follower on DJ Booth.net for awhile(Just decided to become a poster a week ago) I have to say my taste of music has transformed. And with that being said, I have found the real meaning of hip-hop and I believe that his song is a prime example. I love the production by J.Cole. Great song.

This is smooth, clean and undeniably relaxing. Shouts out to Marky. First impressions on Dre-Ski, He got the lyrics and the speed: two attributes you need to be a gifted rapper. BTW diggin the chorus, IT'S STILL SUMMER! I think.
