Miami Beat Wave - One Foot in the Grave
Artist: Miami Beat Wave
Featuring: ¡MAYDAY!
Producer: Miami Beat Wave
Album: Slight Modification
Label: SoFlo Entertainment
It’s beginning to seem like up-and-coming production team Miami Beat Wave is angling to spark more than just a musical revolution with his forthcoming mixtape; fresh off joining forces with hip-hop radicals dead prez (who, granted, kept the political rhetoric to a minimum on This Is Life), the beatsmiths have hooked up with Florida ensemble ¡MAYDAY! to bring us the Booth-exclusive world premiere of One Foot in the Grave, a track which opens with one of the most fiery speeches I’ve heard in a minute: “Good evening to the commune / No need to stand, ‘cause I promise y’all that I’ll be gone soon / see I’m speaking for the working folks…” Miami Beat Wave, of course, comes with bracing boardwork to match Wrekonize, Bernbiz and co.‘s impassioned bars, building from a simmering verse to a spacey, electric-guitar-infused chorus. If you’re digging this musical call-to-arms, you’ll be able to hear plenty more where this came from on the producer’s DJBooth.net-sponsored Slight Modification mixtape, set to hit our mixtape page for streaming and free download September 14.

You know how sometimes I tweet that a particular song is the "DJ Z Pick of the Day"? Well, this record right here (Katt Williams voice used) is my "Pick of the Week." Absolutely smashing.

Not really as enthusiastic about this song as Z but it's pretty good. Not my type but it has a good vibe to it.

I don't think it quite deserves a five star rating. But almost.

Song's strongest aspect is clearly the production. Hook was pretty smooth, especially since it was accompanied by teh change in production. Verses were pretty good as well, but I'm really feeling that hook. Another mixtape to be on the lookout for.

I like this. It's unique and refreshing. Doesn't follow the status quo.
