K. Sparks - No Competition
Artist: K. Sparks
Featuring: Jeff Chery
Producer: Fero Navi
Album: DJBooth.net Exclusive Release
Label: Unsigned
Can you really have “too much of a good thing?” When it comes to Booth-exclusive, dream-team collabos, the answer is clearly “Hell no!” Thus, we’re proud to present another lyrically-driven banger from the powerhouse duo who brought us Turn My Light On just last week. On No Competition, Manic Mondays emcee K. Sparks (who takes top billing this time around) and style-hopping Brooklynite Pay$0z rejoin forces to bring us something different, but equally dope. Fari Navo‘s ominous, string-heavy war march of a beat sets the stage for lyrical slaughter, and the underground emcees match his orchestral bombast with some fittingly hard-hitting rhymes. Sparks sets his sights high, forgoing the easy targets to take aim at some of hip-hop’s current Goliaths—even if you don’t agree that he’s as dope as “10 Eminems” it’s hard not to admire the agility with which he delivers his audacious boasts. Pay keeps a cooler head, spitting a drier brand of punchline lyricism that impressed me more with each listen. Watch for Pay$0z’ Booth-cosponsored Against the Grain LP to hit our front page this summer, and tune in every Monday for new entries in Sparks’ ongoing series.

I love when a rapper compares his greatness to different flavors of potato chips... nice. Not much else to say about this that hasn't been said a hundred times about both artists.

I'm really liking the collaboration on this joint. Its really got good production and one of the K Sparks songs that makes me a fan. This is straight up classic to me and I'll be putting this on for quite some time.

Production is hot and Paysoz always comes correct!!
BUT.... K sparks always sounds the same with his delivery!! Lyrics are always on point but the way he delivers them sounds identical in every song!! I think he is good but imo he needs work on changing up his delivery!! Beat knocks too |

Their braggadocious lyricism is aint cliche, their punchlines are exceptionally witty, & their flow/delievery & wordplay prove to be good enough to back up dis braggadocious boastings .... Fero Navi's beat & the braggadocious hook is catchy as all hell ...

I know some will be mad at me for this, but pay sounds like Drake on this one to me. This is fire either way. I am with LeWy with the fact that sparks flow is somewhat the same on every track, but I think that because there is no one else with that sound,on top of the the fact that his wordplay and content is fire, we love him for it.

To come to think of it Pay$0z does sound a lot like drake in this track.
I have to sort of agree with LeWy on this one as k does sort of have the same pitch in every song but who cares... his lyrical ability certainly makes up for it but if he were to change his style that would just be plain weird. one word to sum it up, INCREDIBLE |

Say Man K. Sparks is dope. The beat is on fire and Pay$0z was on point. K. Sparks always had some awesome lyrical ability. When is this dude going to come out with a album. He's cool on the booth, but he deserves much more.

The production is amazing, Sparks is on point as always. Pay$0z is a beast as well.
I have a problem giving songs 6 stars because this isn't a classic. But if there was a 5th star called "Amazing" or something...Id give it 5 stars lol |

This beat goes real hard and K. Sparks brings the heat as usual. I love his flow and agressiveness on this track. Pay$oz brings a new laid back flow to the track and Im diggin this. Amazing!
