MURS - Better Than The Best
Artist: MURS
Producer: Nottz
Album: MURS For President
Label: It's A Wonderful World Music Group/Traffic/KGMG
Since N.W.A. released Straight Outta Compton in 1988, Los Angeles has been praised for its raw and hardcore style of gangster rap music. At the turn of the century, however, many underground rap artists from Southern California shifted away from the common content known to the region and L.A.-native MURS was ready to take the lead. A member of the West Coast rap group, Living Legends, MURS has already released ten albums (five solo and five collaborative) over the last nine years. Calling his rhyming style “Sitcom Rap,” MURS (Making Underground Raw Sh*t) is known for his clear flow and “say-it-like-it-is” punch lines. So, on the first single off his upcoming new album, MURS makes the claim that he is Better Than The Best. Signed to major label, Warner Bros. Records, MURS For President is set to drop 1st quarter of next year

I've been a fan of MURS from day one and if you guys haven't checked out his previous works with 9th Wonder you betta step your game up. He may not be the best lyricists in the world but he spits lines that other MCs are afraid to spit. West Coast!

It's about time there is something new coming out of California, and it is damn different. I can put this in rotation, but I think he could get corny after a couple of songs.

this beat is nice. I like this, but his song wont keep me listening to an album of him or anything like that, but this is still good...it needs more voices on it, a remix would be nice.
