Neak - Make It
Artist: Neak
Producer: Fyness
Album: 84 Vol. 2 (The Silent Fiasco) Mixtape
Label: Unsigned
Chosen as one of the “25 Rappers From the Chi You Should Already Know” by local magazine W.B.C., up-and-coming emcee/first-time Booth featuree Neak has been making some substantial waves in the Windy City (or “The City of Wind,” as his MySpace bio calls it), and his buzz only seems to be growing bigger. On this new mixtape cut, making its world premiere right here in the Booth, Neak lets listeners in on what makes him tick, spitting about his unstoppable drive to Make It in the music game, and the self-doubt that accompanies his lofty ambitions: “I’m prepared to take flight/Lookin’ at my life like, ‘Damn, it’s worth a lot right now,’ / I can’t let this sh*t bring me down.” Beatsmith Fyness matches the headliner’s reflective yet determined tone on the production tip, backing the track with a sampled combo of melancholy guitar and driving percussion. If you think Neak’s got what it takes to make it to the top, download a copy of his forthcoming 84 Vol. 2 (The Silent Fiasco) mixtape when it hits the ‘net in February 2010.

Shouts to Neak on the premiere.
This is headphone music all the way! Simple production (that works real well) meshes with cathartic rhymes. Neak, whats next brother?

Damn, the production on this one sucked me in. I was hooked from the first five seconds and Neak capped it all of with some solid though sometimes underwhelming lyrics. I agree with Z, let's get some more from Neak, I'm eager to see what he's capable of.

THE SIMPLE PRODUCTION TO ME SPEAKS TO THE GRITTY REALITY HE SPEAKS TO IN THE SONG. PAINTS A DARK PICTURE. HIS LYRICS AND PRODUCTION IS ALL ORIGINAL LOOK HIM UP. IT'S MY FIRST TIME HEARIN THIS DUDE. BUT I'M FEELIN IT FOR REAL. WHEN I THINK ABOUT WHO HE SOUNDS LIKE NOBODY STICKS OUT TO ME, MAYBE A LYRIC STYLE OF A WALE TYPE. BUT STILL CAN'T REALLY REALLY DRAW A COMPARISON. LOOK OUT FOR THAT MIXTAPE IN 2010. IS IT ME OR IS THE MIDWEST BECOMING MORE THAN JUST RELEVANT AGAIN? DETROIT SAYS WHAT UP DOE NEAK? STRONG PREMIERE -REALTALKTRUSTRY

With bouncy percussion and acoustic guitar strumming, song initially grabs the listener’s attention but soon wears thin cos Neak's voice lost me somewhere in the middle ... hmmm ... Rotation-Stuff.
