This coming Sunday, K. Sparks will conclude Manic Mondays, the weekly series that cemented the Queens native’s status as one of the Booth’s favorite underground emcees. Listeners might assume that dropping 52 dope records in as many weeks would be a difficult task, and that would be partially true—the hardest part, however, wasn’t keeping up the pace, but sifting through his massive pile of unreleased cuts to find the best of the best (in his words: “I have 248 records recorded and not released.”). To ease his backlog, Sparks decided to drop a bonus track in addition to week 51’s entry, Stolen. Here, Sparks teams up with Double Up, Ent. labelmate Dave Barz to put the Pressure on all who think they can out-flow him. Complete with a Kurser-produced beat reminiscent of Kanye’s early-00s work, this track would be an ideal street single were Sparks to sign a major distribution deal. Fans of the Double Up crew should keep it locked to our front page—Dave Barz will be stepping into the Booth for an exclusive freestyle once our series resumes in September.

There are many great artists (who have platinum plaques on their walls), who as talented as they are, remain unable to collaborate with an artist without it feeling forced/contrived/studio-enhanced. No collaborative work that Sparks has included in this MM series has ever felt that way - a credit to him and his ability to mesh with his guests.

I definitely think he sounds a lot better on those jazzy productions. I mean this wasn't bad at all, the beat was decent and K came with heat again but this was kind of hard for me to get into. I don't know why. The vocals didn't sound like they went with the beat well. Rotation. I'm excited for next week though. I hope it's sick.

On top of the guaranteed lyrical prowess K. Sparks delivers, Kurser's beat is equally noteworthy ... Dave does a solid! job as well ... 3.5

K. Sparks has become one of my favorite underground rappers and another great thing about his Manic Mondays Series is that I was introduced to a lot of other talented artists out there. Dave Barz does a solid job on this one as well....
I don't think K. Sparks ever sleeps either!!!! |
