El Prez - Love Kills
Artist: El Prez
Featuring: King Mez
Producer: Numonics
Album: LEADERSH!T
Label: Small Chronic Break/Honour Role Music
Can you really die of heartbreak? According to five minutes on Google, most definitely—not only can the stress of separation from a loved one apparently cause literal, fatal heart spasms but, if you’re not careful with others’ feelings, you could well find yourself the victim of a crime of passion. Those courting the hip-hop game’s affections, of course, face even greater dangers. Just ask El Prez, who fills us in on his fatal attraction to rap superstardom on Love Kills, a Booth-exclusive world premiere off his next full-length. Over Booth-acclaimed beatsmith Numonics’ moody sample work, the Inglewood fave (and freestyle alum) paints a lyrical portrait of morbid obsession, lamenting, “I feel the music stabbin’ my heart like a samurai, beatin’ it like a punching bag, blasting it with a nine.” Of course, there is that special something that keeps him grinding despite the pain. As guest spitter King Mez (a fellow freestyle alum) paradoxically puts it on the back, “Lovin’ you is killin’ me but also fulfilling me.” Does this blood-soaked love letter to rap leave you craving more? You’ll find what you seek on LEADERSH!T, set for digital release soon via DJBooth and iTunes.

Some of Prez' best work to date. In addition to picking some great collaborators (Mez and Numonics), Prez' effortless flow is on full display. That breakfast with Dre is right around the corner, brother.

I was expecting a gem coming from El Prez & King Mez seeing as though they're both extremely talented individuals. Bring them together and add Numonics to the picture and you get THIS. I will now have this on repeat. Thanks & salute.

Dope production. I like El Prez best on a smoked out track, but he surprised me here with some great conceptual rhymes. Mez is dope as always.

I like the beat, but I didn't like El-Prez mic skills on this one. Chorus was OK.
