Metafore - Patience
Artist: Metafore
Producer: DJ Emz
Album: On Everything I Love
Label: LuckyBug Entertainment
While most 18-year old artists are rising to the top of the pop charts with catchy dance songs (AhhChoooosouljaboy), rapper Metafore is treading water in the deep end of the pool with his stylish lyricism and subject matter. What got him there? Three core values: Patience, to wait for a chance at some serious cash; Understanding, to know the industry inside and out; And loyalty, because if you forget where you started, who knows where you’ll finish? Using a masterful sample from The Sylver’ soul classic, That’s What Love Is Made Of, Meta proves even in production choice he is well beyond his years. It has often been said that trends come and go, but depth is forever. If that statement holds true, Metafore has a long and successful career ahead of him.
This song first appeared on the
Independent Chart

This dude does sound like he has lived longer than 18yrs. I am really feeling this track right here. I want to hear more from Metafore because he is speaking the truth. And personally, this is my weakest point in life...I have absolutely no Patience! Very nice Write-Up Burmy!

You know when you're about to listen to a song and you have zero expectations going in? But then once you've listened, you are amazed at how impressed you are? This is that song. Very, very impressive. The phones are ringing now.

To connect with people you need to talk about things that really happen in life and I think this track does just that, never heard of Metafore, but its a name I wont be forgettin and certainly suits the quality of the track, for some reason he reminds me a bit of Lupe Fiasco REAL TALKER!

Not bad for a young'n. I get definitely chill to this song. Reminds me of the early-mid '90s underground hip hop. Keep it up Metafore!!!

This guy really hs things figured out. He's got a Nas kind of feel both lyrically and flow. He may not drop the radio's number 1 track, but he isn't going away anytime soon.

yea..lets hate a person cuz their name is spelled different than what its supposed to be...Hey i hate soulja boy..its spelled soldier....i hate timbaland cuz its supposed to be timberland...are you serious...listen to the song and the message rather than focusing on the name...thats like the people that watch movies to notate all the things wrong with it rather than enjoying the movie and plot.........

This song is the real deal. Nice to see someone so young rappin about something real and not doin some stupid dance. I heard Metafore before and I think this kid has what it takes to make it and make it for the long term.
