Fashawn - Going Home
Artist: Fashawn
Producer: Javelin
Album: Sunday School Series / Higher Learning 2 Mixtape
Label: One Records
First Dirty Money, then Vonnegutt; what’s with all the home oriented records? Whatever. If this is what’s happening in the hood, I’ll take DJBooth Freestyle Alum Fashawn‘s Going Home record over the others that have released in the past few weeks. Not because his version is more authentic, but because he went in over a Javelin beat, which tells a story of its own with details like UFO beam-ups, stars twinkling and birds chirping. While I’m not one for “cute” beats, this production work suits Fashawn’s delivery perfectly as he brings emotions dressed in Kanye’s red windbreaker and gold chain: “Sometimes I feel like I’m writing my life away / in the studio night and day / lightin’ haze / spittin’ like I’m twice me age.” Fash has properly told the story of his come-up in the music industry before, and Going Home just adds to the collection of tracks that fit his storybook catalog. Fittingly, this song is the latest in Fashawn’s Sunday School series and will be released on his upcoming mixtape, Higher Learning, set to be released in March.

"Going Home" represents the best song in Fash's current weekly series, the most original and enjoyable song to be leaked off his forthcoming new mixtape, and a representative sample of why he is one of the more talented emcees currently on the rise in the industry.

Fashawn flows perfectly on this beat. It's a down to earth song you can sit back and enjoy at home.

Well this is my first time hearing from Fashawn. And this is a great first impression for me. He does great in this record. His lryics on his verses are very deep, thoughtfull, and stay on point. And i always have great respect for artists that can drop records that have a great flow, smooth verse with nice lryics, that arent random. And he does all of that in this. The production from Javelin is very nice. A overall great song. A banger for me.
