Fashawn - Manny Pacquaio
Artist: Fashawn
Producer: Phonix
Album: Higher Learning 2
Label: One Records
Don’t let the title of Fashawn‘s ongoing series fool you; the Cali native’s style of moral education is a little different from what those raised in the church may remember from their Sunday School days. For example, all that “last shall be first,” “turn the other cheek” stuff goes out the window in the first few seconds of this newly-released joint, which finds the freestyle series alumnus paying tribute to master pugilist Manny Pacquaio. Backed by a chopped sample of stadium staple We Are the Champions (courtesy of beatsmith Phonix), the Cali representative comes out swinging. In verses as witty as they are aggressive, the emcee expresses his willingness to pummel anyone who gets in his way: “Lets get one thing crystal clear: I’m a magician, dear / Because I made all my peers disappear.” Has the Boy Meets World phenom scored a knockout punch with this exultant banger? If you think so, stay tuned for future entries in Fash’s series, as well as the latest details on his Higher Learning 2 mixtape, due out “soon.”

I find it hard to believe that after the last three years, people are still sleeping on Fashawn. Evidently, though, he believes that. He sounds fiery, determined, and flat out set in his way to showcase his talents. As a result, we, the listeners, win.

I agree with Z, how is it that within 3 years people are still sleeping on Fash. Thats some BS. Hey people like to listen to crap, they need to hear real music and a solid album like Boy Meets World. I loved Grizzly City 3 Mixtape and with this song i am looking foward for Higher Learnings 2 mixtape. J.cole and Whiz Khalifa i must say you guys got a big support from artists that are signed. But we all will see Fash will rise to the top with no help. Fash the Best Freshman of XXl top 10.

You can never go wrong with a Queen sample. Well, actually you can, but thankfully Phonix does well with this one. it bangs, and unsurprisingly Shawn absolutely crushes the beat. I find it hard to believe anyone's still sleeping on the man, but if you are, wake the f**k up.

Are you serious!? Wow this is really dope from Fashawn. In the begining.... i was like "wtf is this crap??" Then he went in and F**king MURDERED it! THe production is amazing from Phonix. I have been a huge fan of Fashawn for a long time, and this is exactly why. He drops bangers.
