The Washington D.C. area hip-hop scene has produced a lot of quality music over the years, including, Asheru, Low Budget, and more recently and most prominently, Wale. Recently, the hip-hop duo Fly Gypsy has also emerged from the up-and-coming area, gaining fans and buzz with some infectious beats and catchy hooks. Comprised of producer and songwriter, Alexei Jendayi, and Jamaican-born emcee, Kowboy Kom, the group launched in July 2009, with the release of the summertime single You, a hit that’s given Gypsy a momentum that’s resulted in their new single, 2 Step. Produced by Jendayi, 2 Step has a fresh, and optimistic sound featuring a smooth, soulful flow from Kom complete with some great cultural references (listen for “the Huxtables” name drop). Ultimately 2 Step is an eclectic sound of instruments, background vocals and synthetic beats that shows why Fly Gypsy has been growing in popularity. The single can be found off the group’s upcoming EP, Change For a Dollar which drops December 1.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on November 9, 2009

You cannot help but smile while listening to this record. If you want to front and deny this fact, you are merely in need of some loving. Call a friend or family member immediately.

Really digging the production on this, that's some inventive ish. Couldn't keep my head from nodding if I tries. Liked but didn't love the vocals, I'll average it out to three stars.

A-Yo! It's the same song with a NEW title that was on their Mixtape "Rum & Vodka" titled "Reason" featuring a blended verse of Kanye West’s from Pharrell’s “Number 1?.

Well, no complaints from me as I absolutely loved it (alongside many other joints on tape packing substantive lyrics) and now with no previously heard verse by Kanye it gets immeasurably improved to a BANGER!!! status. Production by Alexei is just the type which I can listen to day n nite.

Yes, this is an updated version of "Reasons" from "The Vodka & Rum Mixtape." We had to change the title to get the sample cleared. And needless to say, do away with Kanye's verse. Thanks for the support!

I'm mos def feelin the sample, but part of me thinks there are too many LA LA LA LA's in the background. It's definitely headnodic tho!
