With his first feature, Minne-ap up-and-comer Mally held the mirror up to American society, spitting about the systemic injustices that keep his People down. Now, the emcee’s flipped that looking glass around to take a good, long look at his own Reflection. Over a soulful, organ-driven instrumental by Mydus (producer of 810‘s U Won’t Like This), the rapper gives curious listeners a guided tour of his psyche, touching upon the struggles that made him the artist he is today, his feelings on being labeled a “conscious rapper,” and even his religious beliefs (“I love God, but I never really loved church.”). Mally’s main focus here is on telling it like it is, but he doesn’t neglect to season his no-nonsense rhymes with poetic imagery and subtle wordplay. Eloquence, realness, and old school-informed boardwork are all big draws in the Booth, and when all three intersect on a single track, rave reviews are likely to follow. The emcee’s latest LP, The Passion, is available now in stores and online; in addition, watch for Mally to step into the Booth for an exclusive freestyle sometime this fall!

The homey Mally is one of the illest cats out of my city! GET TO KNOW HIM! Just some more of Minnesota's great hip hop talent. His LP "The Passion" is hands down one of the best hip hop albums to come out of the Minnesota Hip Hop Scene ever. If you can't respect that, your whole perspective is wack!
This was one of my favorites on the album. Y'all definitely need to go and cop that. Mydus has a great sound. It just has that timeless classic feel. Expect a collab from my and Mr. 612 Mally himself, and of course a guest production from Mydus on "Dreamer's Poetry", coming soon! |

Yeah, this guy was really saying what he feels and the production was perfect for him to do this song.
@Mike Dreams - You don't have to worry about carrying Minnesota on your own homie. This dude's got mad skills and this song was great. Guess I gotta check out his LP now, huh? |

Another track and preaches and inspires, and manages to be brutally honest "i love God, but i never really love church", that is something to be commended.
