What does it take to succeed on talent in an industry dominated by fads and flash? To put it simply, you’ve Gotta Be M.usically D.riven O.ver T.ime—or M-Dot, for short. Straight outta Boston, Massachusetts, the Italian-American up-and-comer isn’t the type to bandwagon-jump his way to fame and fortune, but he comes with a retro-informed, lyrically-driven style that will always hold appeal for hardcore heads in the Booth and beyond. The newly-released lead single off the artist’s forthcoming debut album finds him teaming up with a fellow MA native to explain just how determined he is to make it to the top; while M-Dot’s energetically-flowed rhymes sound right at home over Teddy Roxpin‘s brassy, soul-sampling instrumental, Springfield native Krumb Snatcha‘s gruff wordplay on the front end is equally appealing. If you’re digging this ambitious jam, be sure and support M-Dot’s grind by picking up a copy of his first LP, set to drop in the fourth quarter of this year.

Definetly a banger. I like the fact that it's real Hip-Hop. Don't get me wrong... I'm universally musically inclined. This is what Hip-Hop/Rap is missin' these days. Respect & Blessings to yal. Peace. |

I love this song, it's just a hit plain and simple. Such a good look for hip-hop. The beat is dope and so are the lyrics. It has such a smooth flow and it's catchy. |

People obviously feel strongly about this record, but where are the comments - ratings only go so far! We want to hear from you!! The sample is what pulls you in here, but M-Dot's lyrical prowess is what keeps you listening. Nice intro to the Booth community. DJ Booth on Twitter |

DJZ is right. Homie Mdot be really saying some words. I went to his myspace and I like that he gets deep/conscious and is able to still maintain cadence. Like this post and I been repping the Bean for a minute so its nice to see a Dot working with someone like Krumb Snatcha |

Teddy Roxpin is a name that people should be familiar with...a dope beatmaker. The contrast of styles makes for an awesome collab, Krumb delivers a nice verse while M-Dot draws you in with his sincerity. |

If you enjoy/ really like hip hop, you're diggin' this. Let's face it, hip hop has changed peoples! If you want REAL, DOPE, THROWBACK, BOOM BAP hip hop, than this is for you. M Dot, must snort coke mixed with no-doz while downing huge cups of coffee; cause homie done't sleep, an neither should you. |
