If it feels like just last week that up-and-coming emcee King Mez introduced himself to the Booth with reader-acclaimed cut Winter – as a matter of fact, that was just last week – but it’s already come time for the North Carolina native to say “So Long.” Ah, parting is such sweet sorrow. OK, ok, Mez isn’t actually going anywhere; on the contrary, he’s back on our front page with an exclusive world premiere off his and beatsmith Commissioner Gordon‘s forthcoming mixtape. Here, Gordon serves up what I’m going to go ahead and say is the first Rocky Horror Picture Show sample in DJBooth.net history (from I’m Going Home, if you’re wondering), as the headliner recounts a failing relationship’s inevitable end. Kooley High members and fellow Tar Heel State natives Tab One and Charlie Smarts provide moral support on the guest tip, each giving his own take on the difficulty of walking out the door. For more disarmingly dope tracks from Mez and Gordon, grab a copy of Paraplegics (due out in March ) as soon as it drops – which is to say, you better get a leg up on it now.

Headphones on, walking the down the street, sun is shining, smile from ear to ear. You are moving on in life and you need a soundtrack. Yes, this is what is bumping in the mp3 player.

Usually I'm completely unaffected by breakup songs, but I have to admit that this one was actually pretty sad. I don't know if it's the violins on the hook or the hope-then-no-hope message conveyed in the lyrics.
Sounds Kanye-ish to me (the production, that is), and it's definitely in rotation. |

This is a good warm up for the album, I always feel break up tracks. Even if I have a girlfriend, it's funny because I'm in a complicated relationship now. But I'm definitely feeling this track, shout out to C.G. for seriously lacing my boy Mez up.

Wow, could the 919 be the next DMV? Folks from N.C. obviously support each other. I'll have to keep on the lookout for Mez and Kooley High so I can say I was listening to em back in the day when they go big time.
Oh, and this has been on repeat for the last 10 minutes. Banger. |

Not a break up song type of person, but this legit. Some of the lyrics are a little weak using 2 many cliches, but the flow is spot on.
