J The S - Last Tickets for the Bandwagon
Artist: J The S
Featuring: Emilio Rojas
Producer: Keelay
Album: Unreleased
Label: Unsigned
The opening air horns from J The S’s Last Tickets for the Bandwagon ring out like a klaxon, a warning sign for many. Jake The Snake doesn’t necessarily carve out a new sound on the duo cut with Emilio Rojas; instead he wades in waters enriched by countless New York underground classics. Keelay’s light snares and dark piano melody open the doors for J The S to outline the difference between real friends and those hanging on for show. Rojas, a standout on many of his own individual tracks, comes hard with honest bars on this one, touching on bank bailouts, criminals serving longer sentences for victimless crimes and more. Cut throat honesty prevails throughout as the Boston native’s last verse paints an exact picture of common sense mixed with a muddled reality, “Stressed out currently, chiefing more reefer than [Wiz] Khalifa & Curren$y / And BP just went on a murder spree, but my boy get locked cause he don’t keep his urine clean.” With a work ethic driven towards the truth, the DJBooth Freestyle alumnus is looking at big things for 2011, including a J. Cardim-produced EP, coming soon. Get your tickets now.

Strong effort all around from three individuals (Jake, Emilio, and Keelay) who are not strangers around these parts. Love the passion.

J the S just keeps on making good music. Hopefully he gets signed and gets the recognition he deserves, as he's way above most of the hip hop for children currently out there... Rojas delivers - he always does.

The word "real" is the most overused word in hip-hop, right behind "swag", but it's hard to find two emcees who keep it realer (and I mean really real) than J the S and Emilio.
Did that make any sense? Nevermind. Beat's nice, and the flows are on point. What more do you want? Word to all my Boston people. |
