John Brown has been relentlessly grinding to let the world know that the hood is just as beautiful as the suburbs that he grew up in.  The King of the ‘Burbs, who earned his moniker from the Caucasian revolutionary, made a name for himself on Ego Trip’s White Rapper Show on VH1.  On Where I’m From, the Cali native gives us a clear-cut look at where he’s been and where he’s going. Without relying on the catch phrases he was famous for on the show, Brown utilizes producer Keith Clizark’s bouncy West Coast strings, synthesizers and keys to insightfully show us exactly what goes down on his side of the town. Brown’s album, Burb Life, is set for a September release date. Hallelujah holla back.

I'm not really feeling this cat...i admit after the "white rapper show" I might have said "halleluja holla back" once or twice but who hasnt :)
Overall the song is pretty week
The verses are ok but i never ever ever wanna hear that hook again
Best thing about this is the beat

To quote Billy Madison, "At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
