K. Sparks - Soul Food ft. J.D.
Artist: K. Sparks
Producer: Pajozo
Album: Manic Mondays (Week 39)
Label: Unsigned
If lousy pop music had the same deleterious effects on one’s physique as empty calories, I have a feeling we’d all be packing a few extra pounds (and I shudder to think what would happen to DJ Z, who gets to sift through hundreds of submissions to decide what will appear on our front page). Fortunately, we can always count on something tasty and nutritious from reader favorite K. Sparks, who serves up a heaping helping of Soul Food (minus the artery-clogging grease) on installment #39 of his Manic Mondays series. Inspired by Pajozo‘s brassy, soul-sampling instrumental, Sparks’ has joined forces with Hollis, NY emcee J.D. for some Little Brother-esque mic-passing action. While Sparks’ aggressive, wordplay-laced rhymes are as fresh as ever, J.D. proves more than able to keep up—spitting lines like “I predict that they’ll be sayin’ the clique made off with more money than Madoff made off with,” the indie up-and-comer is sure to make fans of the same lyrical heads who already hang on the headliner’s every word. Due out in the next few months, Sparks and Pajozo’s collaborative LP of the same name is sure to provide plenty more nourishing beats and rhymes—in the meantime, keep it locked to the Booth for all the latest leaks.

Like a nice helping of Mac N Cheese and some butter biscuits, this one goes down tasty.
Greatly looking forward to K. Sparks DJBooth.net Mixtape - WHAT? - and his Pajozo collabo project.

@Richard - Lol, you have NO IDEA what DJ Z has to go through. Trust me, it can get very interesting at times. Ha ha!! :)
Anyways. I like this track from Sparks. Not technically a Manic Monday, but, as long as I have my fill of Sparks for the week, I'm happy!! Not his best, but certainly rotation worthy. |

Not Sparks' best but, nevertheless, it was tight. His lyrics are always clever and I love his delivery (I don't care if it sounds the same on every song).

3 star for me. Right in the middle of his past contributions with the solid production and lyrics.
I'm getting a little picky here with Sparks because I hear him so much. Nevertheless, still love the Manic Mondays. |

Bedstuy on the check in, Pajozo is a beast. And Sparks and JD did the damn thing. Not a classic but fresh man.

K. Sparks has to be one of the most consistent emcees thus far. Week after week he continues to drop quality music. He's proven himself to be one of my favorite artist now. This song has a soulful feel that makes me want to throw on some Premiere beats and vibe out. My only question is when will he release an album on a major label.
