There’s no better way to deal with stress and self-doubt than channeling your frustrations into art—it’s definitely more satisfying than punching a hole in your bedroom wall, and much more likely to impress others.  On Let It Fly, Manic Monday #48, K. Sparks explains that, though he has as many problems as the next guy, they all seem to melt away when he steps up to the mic.  Coasting over G.C.‘s narcotically jazzy sampled boardwork, complete with reverb-drenched hook and backing vocals by frequent collaborator Julius Francis, the Queens emcee lets his words take wing, and the results are, unsurprisingly, spectacular—packing his expressionistic verses with internal rhyme-driven gems like “In tabernacles, I battle rappers and shatter shackles...”, Sparks turns in a subtly dizzying performance that will leave few lyrical heads unimpressed.  This hypnotic track is about as relaxing as it gets; simply put on on your headphones, close your eyes, and let your troubles drift away—of course, if that doesn’t do the trick, you could always try taking your frustration out on some unsuspecting picnickers.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on August 3, 2009

K. Sparks is at his best on these jazz-style beats. The production is amazing on here and K. Sparks lyrics and rhymes are a joy to listen to. 5 STARS!!

There's something about K.Sparks that just doesn't connect. His lyrics are nice, he just sounds distant and emotionless.

Another jazzy production... and another banger.

Sidebar - I really hope he just goes crazy on the last track of the series in a couple weeks.

DAMN! K. Sarks comes spitting straight fire on here, throwing so much energy into his verse that it'll get anyone hyped. And the inclusion of Julius' vocals throughout the track makes it only better i.e. Full Stars.

Wow. I rarely comment here but this song is amazing. Sometimes background vocals during the verse can be distracting, here they are extremely complementary. Beat is great. Keeps the head nodding the whole time. Great song.
