When your influences include Jimi Hendrix, Santogold and Young Jeezy, it’s a safe bet that your sound will be plenty unique. Enter previously-featured emcee, Harlems Cash, who is handed a masterful cut from The Government, over which he makes one thing abundantly clear: I Wanna Rock. This brilliant blending of Hendrix’s Fire and 2 Live Crew’s Pop That Coochie sends listeners on a musical journey to Harlemwood. In this magical land where the grime of 125th meets the posh setting of Beverly Hills, HC’s energy and eclectic sound thrive. With lyrical deftness and a playfulness that is becoming the new “it” thing in rap, Harlems Cash is looking like a good buy in ’09.

I wouldnt expect a cat from Harlem to be comin with a song like this. This was not what I was expecting and threw me off. Wasn't feeling the production or really anything about it, but I can see others feelin it.

This is pretty uptempo and I love the production. The lyrics are simple but I like his flow. I like the mixture of genres on here. This is pretty tight

Hip-Hop and R&B are my life now, but I grew up on everything. Everything = Jimi and 2 Live Crew. (The difference? My dad played Jimi for me, I played 2LC under headphones when I was alone, haha)

The Government issued some excellent production creativity and HC rode the eclectic beat perfectly. HOT!
