Fresh Daily - Apollo 13
Artist: Fresh Daily
Producer: Benamin
Album: Tomorrow Is Today EP
Label: High Water Is Music
“Brooklyn, we have a problem. The very cradle of hip-hop is straying from its roots, and we need your help to bring it back.” This fictional transmission quote might give Booth-heads a good idea as to what inspired Apollo 13, a cut off Fresh Daily‘s highly-anticipated Tomorrow Is Today mixtape. Unlike 2 Hungry Bros. beat on the emcee’s Booth debut, Swerve, Benamin‘s out-of this world instrumental (complete with samples from jazz musician/cosmic philosopher Sun Ra’s film Space Is The Place) doesn’t overpower Fresh’s verses—in fact, it should ensure the record gets spins from DJs all across the galaxy. After Tomorrow Is Today drops (watch for a download link to hit our blog sometime in the first week of May), fans can look forward to his forthcoming full length, The Gorgeous Kill In Crimes of Passion, which is set to deliver plenty more of FD’s organically underground sound when it touches down July 21st.

Man, dude had me noddin my head wit the beat and the wordplay on this one. The production by Benamin is really strange, but I love it; the sound effects work well wit Fresh Daily's flow. Speaking of- I WILL be lookin for more from this cat. The concept of the track is nice and his wordplay/quirky lyrics are real tight.

The production is strange but once I got used to it, it sounded good blended with Fresh Daily's lyrics. Is this outerspace production the new thing for hip-hop in 09'. Nice track in rotation

Wooo! I actually see colors when listenin to this son@ with my eyes closed. This is fire production! Reminds me of Tribe on steroids or somethin! Fresh does @et lost in the sickness of this music. The weirdness in the break down with that sample was not needed, just keep that beat @oin. It keeps me on a Natural Hi@H!

Benamin's beat FORCES you to listen to Fresh and the end result is an emcee who has something to say that is worthy of your attention.
Looking forward to this new EP!

Oh yeah. Bowwserr loves the production. Pardon the 3rd person lol. Really though, this production is probably the best of the day. He definitely had somethin' real to say on this one, and I enjoyed listening.
But what the HELL is up with those glasses? Lol. |

The production has a great atmosphere but the overall song bored me. It's a good work but not my type I guess!
