K. Sparks - Alright Then (Remix)
Artist: K. Sparks
Producer: T-Mos
Album: Manic Mondays (Week 43)
Label: Unsigned
It should surprise no one that Booth favorite K. Sparks is a fan of Family Guy; with his talent for working tangential, sometimes hilariously off-color retro pop culture references into his rhymes, the Queens emcee could probably write for the show. Centered around a vocal snippet from one of the envelope-pushing series’ best-known characters, megalomaniacal toddler Stewie Griffin, this remixed version of Alright Then (Manic Monday #43) finds Sparks spitting off-the-wall verses that would make Seth MacFarlane proud—Mike Tyson, Indiana Jones, Michael Jackson and E.T. all serve as fodder for the emcee’s Booth-renowned brand of allusive punchline lyricism. Complete with a percussion-driven, horn-punctuated instrumental by frequent Manic Mondays beatsmith T-Mos (see Temperature, Genesis...), this cut is, unsurprisingly, much better than “Alright,” and is pretty much guaranteed to earn Sparks his 43rd round of rave reader reviews—now, if you’ll excuse me, I have a date with Gary Coleman in Mexico…

This dude is so creative it's not even funny. The sample fits perfect. And T Mos production compliments well. Flavor

It amazes me that after 43 weeks K Sparks is able to still put out quality music week after week. I never heard of him until I saw him on this site and I'm glad DJ Booth is giving new talent the opportunity to shine. Artist like Sparks, Young Son, and countless others are now on my radar.

Beat is HOT!!
Stewie sample is classic!! Lyrics were on point!! I think production is what shines here!! Not really a big K. Sparks fan!! Dont get it twisted the guy is talented when it comes to writing his sh*t, but he bores me after a while with his style and delivery!! |

The vocal sample fits the T-mos bumping (lovin those drums) production, combining with some deft lyrical wordplay from Sparks and we have another one
BANGER!!! |

Sounds like genesis but it slightly varied and the 'Family Guy' sample was incredibly funny. This is like the Average for K because all his songs have been banger or more.
