Mr. Robotic - Beat Steady Knocking
Producer: Chuck Inglish
Album: Unreleased
Label: Team RMG
It’s been quite a while since last we heard from reader favorite Bullet, but that’s understandable – the transition from human to robot is a delicate and time-consuming process. That’s right: in a plot twist straight out of a science fiction thriller, the Chi-town emcee’s merged with the machine to become Mr. Robotic. Has the switch affected his sound? It’s too early to tell for sure, but unreleased track Beat Steady Knocking is a little different from the propulsive, Slot-A produced club bangers for which he’s best known in the Booth. Here, Cool Kid Chuck Inglish serves up a laid-back, appropriately metallic-sounding synth instrumental (complete with a chopped-and-screwed hook sampled from Gorilla Zoe‘s Hood Figga) as Robotic spits bars brimming with braggadocio and pop-culture references: “I’m so VIP just like a private screening / You are Bruce Almighty, I must be Morgan Freeman.” So, does Bullet by any other name still sound as fresh? If you think so, keep it locked to DJBooth.net, as well as the artist’s newly-launched official site, worldofrobotic.com, for all the latest from the Windy City up-and-comer.

What I'm digging here: The yellow button down cardigan sweater (see photo), the name change from Bullet to Mr. Robotic, and the easy breezy flow on display.
What I'm not digging: The out-of-character production work from Inglish, the Gorilla Zoe sample, and the unneeded monologue ending. In the end that equals about a 3. I'd even go 3.25 with the launch of that dope new site. |

Goddamn, my headphones just blew up with that bass. I never thought I'd hear someone flip a Gorilla Zoe hook like this, but Inglish definitely pulled it off.
As far as Mr. Robotic is concerned, definitely a high-energy flow, but I feel like the beat overwhelms him a little bit. Three stars. |

I actually dug the production & Gorilla Zoe sample on this, and Mr. Robotic is more lyrically skilled than most rappers that would jump on a club beat like this.

This is banging, the it's definately a high energy cut, the right dj can wreck shop with this in the play list, the bass is jbl 728 worthy.

The Gorilla Zoe hook, and the beat did title says. It knocked hard. But I thought we were going to hear a dude singing a classical song. But his flow was alright.
