Miles Jones - Never Too Late (Remix)
Artist: Miles Jones
Featuring: Classified
Producer: Black Milk
Album: Promo Single
Label: Mojo Records & Publishing
Quoting books I’ve never read makes me feel like a high school English student with writer’s block, but, what the heck; this one couldn’t be more appropriate. In his Philosophical Dictionary, Voltaire wrote “We are rarely proud when we are alone,” and Booth newcomer Miles Jones can attest to that’s statement’s truth. On this new, remixed version of a single originally released back in April, the Toronto up-and-comer lets listeners in on a lesson he learned the hard way: though it’s “Never Too Late to say ‘I’m sorry,’” those too stubborn to apologize when wounds are fresh are liable to find themselves flying solo. Black Milk‘s tension-fraught blend of chopped samples and buzzing synth-bass sets a pensive mood as Jones and Nova Scotian rap vet Classified each give their take on hubris’ relationship-damaging consequences, and the introspective lyricism both bring to the cut should make this a hit with underground listeners on both sides of the border. The original version of Never Too Late will be included on the emcee’s forthcoming Runaway Jones LP, which will be released August 18th in Canada.

An overall enjoyable listen. Black Milk has to be one of the most slept on producers, Classified is always a great feature guest choice, and Miles takes both of these elements and rolls with 'em on his Booth debut.

Very solid track here. The production is pretty tight and both artists rapped very well over it. The hook was pretty cool as well. I like the hooks that the rappers do (not getting a hook-singer). I clicked on this thinking it was Mike Jones, so I was surprised, but hey, I think this guy is more refreshing than Mike Jones is.

Everything was on point here. Good guest spot, good instrumental, smart & conscious lyrics ... It's no banger, but it's not anything you should sleep on either... Rotation.

Yeah, I too thought it said Mike Jones. Wasn't till I realized that it was someone other than Mike that I felt like clicking on this song. :)
By the way, just a little side comment: Black Milk is a really great track by Massive Attack. Lol, really random, but I'm sleep deprived, so get over it. Lol. This track is hot though. It's a pleasure to listen to. Like Mr.Top Hat was saying, this is nothing spectacular, but it's definitely not trash either, so it gets put in the easy medium category. |

This song was just ok for me. The instrumental did not do much for me, but both verse from the artist was hot, but the beat did not do much for me.
P.S. Bowwserr, I thought it was mike jones at first too. Give Mike Jones a break homeboy, he might be at lower-tier of the hip-hop world, but he's from Texas so I have to defend him. |

@sdcrout - Heh, I was born, raised, and still live in the ATX (that'd be Austin, Texas). I rep my Texans, too. But I back up people like Chamillionaire. People that are good hip-hop artists. Trust me,, I know about Texas pride. But I still don't respect Mike Jones.
