Hawk - Automatic ft. Kevin Cossom
Artist: Hawk
Featuring: Kevin Cossom
Producer: The Runners
Album: Unreleased
Label: Brick Stars Ent.
If there’s one lesson to be learned from the last few years’ Billboard charts, it’s that most ladies would love nothing more than to land a man willing to blow loads of money supplying them with all of life’s finer things. Rhode Island representative (and frequent South Florida collaborator) Hawk is the latest artist to mine this rich vein of female appeal; on his first Booth feature, he promises a woman that, if she rolls with him, big ballin’ will be Automatic. With frequent Booth feature (and SoFlo hookman extraordinaire) Kevin Cossom on the hook and The Runners on the beat, Automatic might have a hard time standing out in a vast sea of similar jams. Then again, perhaps the demand for such songs is just as insatiable as the female appetite for the aforementioned luxury items; if that’s the case, expect Automatic to be just as successful as the rest!

This one has got ryder appeal to it, I like the frequent rap-to-sing switch up throughout the track, keeps it entertaining. Hawk does a good job switchin up the flow too. The production is pretty hard too, liking the eerie vibe from The Runners. Typical generic wordplay, but the other factors overshadow it.

This is cool. Nothing really special, but it's aight. Kevin Cossom is decent. He was defeinitely better on "Usual Suspects" but I think he is someone to watch out for. The Runners production is OK, but I just didn't feel enough energy. I've definitely heard better from them. Hawk was decent, he had some cool lyrics. Overall, in rotation.

Runners has produced many Bangers. But this one? Naw... this sh*t was wack, washed up rhymes bout already killed subjects, played out hook ... Kevin should have stayed away from it as booth is ridin high to his hook on "Usual Suspects" ... but like GSatn10 said he is def a someone to watch out for...

Played out subject matter with this one and its too repetitive. The beat is decent but the hook is generic also. Could only listen to this a few times before it would get old. Decent

I like this (3.9 but not quite a banger lol)....I'll probably listen to it a couple more times but I just didn't really like the hook. His rapping is hot though!!! Never mind....I'm rating 4 whatever lol.

Yes, this record has been done before. Yes, the topics have been covered. And yes, you could replace Hawk with about 20 other artists and this might get a higher rating. However, it isn't my cup of tea, it does its purpose and cannot be hated on.
Shouts to my boy, KC, who always comes through on the vocal tip.

Not brilliant. I only really liked KC on the hook on this track. He's a guy I expect to be used quite alot more on hooks in coming months.

this is really not good...when it comes to other people's songs, KC is kinda always singing about the same nonsense

Generally the runners production is way more energetic then this so i dont know what happend...seems like the best production they make goes to the A-listers of the rap game and everyone else gets the left overs!
I agree with thatkid that the second verse was the best of the whole track and to be honest if it wasnt for K.C i dont think i would have made it past the first verse...Hawk came out sound like your average generic rapper...2.5 stars |

The song is a lil dated. Came out over a year ago originally, which usually means it was recorded a year before that. No telling how old this joint is.

@eneric in every way, but the beat had my head nodin. I have to admit I tuned Hawk out completely. All I heard was the beat and "Automatic" on the hook.

Seems like The Runners give their better productions for the bigger artists because this particular one is weak compared to their others (Speedin, It's My Time, etc.) Chorus is catchy big ups to KC, but Hawk is forgettable. I don't like to necessarily hate, but I am just giving my honest opinion.

Hmm, I agree with the comments that say the production was below expectation, The Runners can do better. I like the whole switch-up thing though.
So 2.5! |

I liked the production, but this song needs more energy...the melody wasn't so catchy in my opinion. It's not a banger for sure, but I'd put it in rotation. I know The Runners are great producers, but to me they did a good work also here

Oh no he did not just rhyme "soldier boy" wit "SouljaBoy". Nothin really worth listenin to here. His flow was just aight, the production was kinda boring, and the hook wasn't all that interesting. I do have to say that I like his flow (but not his lyrics) during the beginning of the second verse.
