Emilio Rojas - Ice Cream 2K12
Artist: Emilio Rojas
Producer: Vinylz
Album: No Shame, No Regrets
Label: Unsigned
On the third single off his seminal Only Built 4 Cuban Linx… LP, Raekwon hopped in his Ice Cream truck to deliver some frozen confections to all the beautiful women in his ‘hood. Though the lead single off Emilio Rojas’ next album is a 2K12 update of that mid-nineties classic, the cut finds the Rochester rhymesayer dealing with some deeper issues than which flavor of female to chase after. Over Vinylz’ production, a synth-laced reworking of RZA‘s original beat (featuring an iconic sample from guitarist Earl Klugh’s A Time for Love instrumental) as Rojas reflects on his rise from poverty to prominence and flips the bird to the family who only cared about him once he got on. Director Court Dunn ties the package together, providing a novel spin on the original cut’s official visuals. No Shame, No Regrets as yet lacks a solid drop date, but the artist assures us that it’s coming “soon.” In the meantime, Rojas fans should be sure to check out his guest rhymes on Jared Evan‘s Charlie Brown (Remix), premiered today in the Booth.

They should have rammed that ice cream truck into a bank and used the masks to rob the place. Just kidding, I just watched Heat and cannot get that movie out of my head. Dope record.

Emilio Rojas is not your typical rapper. He has a consistent flow and his lyrical ability is amazing. The production on this is so chill. Surprised he's still unsigned.

The setting/backdrop is cool and sleek, but but too peaky in places with slick-back urban darkness.
Well with some more off-the-wall mumbo jumbo, me-likey: solid flows and ol' skl drama brings this one in. |

Emilio is in my top 5, we'll just forget about his P&P (Which couldn't even compare to Kendrick's unless it had the visual form of Emma Stone), this, is right back on track from 'Life Without Shame'.
