FeSo ft. Matte - Walkin’ By

FeSo - Walkin' By

Artist: FeSo

Producer: CMart

Album: The Corner Club Presents: Working Title

Label: Unsigned

As the cliché goes, the road to success is paved with failure—failure which, for those in the entertainment industry, takes the form of public embarrassment—and the ones who do win out are those who had the courage to pick themselves up and soldier on despite early stumbles. On new single Walkin’ By, an exclusive world premiere, Booth newcomer FeSo teaches listeners a lesson in perseverance, harking back to his very first tentative steps into the rap game. Over CMart‘s soulfully poignant beat, sampled from Nina Simone’s Don’t You Pay Them No Mind, the indie emcee describes how a few awkward cipher performances inspired him to start penning rhymes. Though, as he explains, his first couplets were far from dazzling, he didn’t let homies’ unenthusiastic reactions take the wind out of his sails: “Even though they weren’t impressed, I kept at it ‘cause comfort kills success.” Matte lends a hand on the middle, reflecting on the backbreaking (but rewarding) labor of making one’s way in the game. FeSo’s clearly come a long way—if you’d like to accompany him on the next leg of his journey, be sure to cop his Working Title street album when it drops on August 16.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11866	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs FeSo's flow could use some more work, at times he sounds a little unsure of himself, but that will come with time/experience. I also would have preferred to hear FeSo tackle all three verses (not impressed with Matte). Overall, the production is the highlight of the record. I look forward to hearing more material.

DJ Brad Tastemaker Total Ratings: 554	Rating: DJ Brad's Top Rated Songs It kinda seems like this song changes what it's about like halfway through. But, it still works out, so it's okay. I think a lot of people can relate to this track. Really, the hook could have been better though.
