Growing up in Brooklyn in the late ‘90s, Frankie Krutches dealt with more than his fair share of adversity. Shortly after losing his father to HIV and many of his friends to the prison system, Krutches fell victim to a gunshot wound in the left leg (hence the name, “Krutches"). Hoping for brighter days ahead, Frankie has left his past behind him and on his new single, he raps about the hip-hop lifestyle of Timbos & Range Rovs. Assisted by fellow Northeast MCs Red Café and Cassidy, as well producer GQ Beats, Timbos & Range Rovs is a perfect example of modern-day underground East Coast hip-hop. Krutches will release his debut album, Clarity, in the first quarter of ‘09.
This does nothin 4 me. The beat is above average. But the lyrics don't make me care much. I realise I just don't care bout what NY is walkin in or driving these days. Cassidy should just take this song 4 himself, because he clearly is the only relevent verse on the song.
Krutches has a great back story, so its slightly disappointing to hear no reflection on the track. Good work, Burmy on the history! I would like to hear more from Frankie, hopefully they continue to send us more music!
Krutches is nothing special at all. The production and hook sample is a little interesting, but not mind-boggling. Red Cafe did pretty well on this joint. He wasn't bad. Cassidy held it down on this joint. He always serves it up. I'll give this a 3. Without Cass, it would've been a 2.
I like the beat but I honestly find their flows boring, above all that one repeating timbos timbos timbos...I think the beat could have been exploited in another, better way
Nah! The chopped and screwed in NY... Nah! Red Cafe killed it. (Hold on... I'm awaiting Cassidy) Nah! Cassidy was a lil lame on this one (too repetitious).
Krutches might have a good story, but that doesn't excuse him for being garbage. The beat wasn't anything special. Red Cafe was boring. Cassidy was the best part of this and he wasn't that good
