Notion ft. DJ Rise - Zeused UP

Notion - Zeused UP

Artist: Notion

Producer: DJ Jacks Green

Album: TBD

Label: Unsigned

Since spitting about his dealings with the Man Downstairs on June’s Bargain With the Devil, Notion‘s been eerily quiet. Could it be… could Old Scratch already have come to collect the Seattle repper’s immortal soul?! Thankfully, that’s not the case—on his latest effort, the up-and-comer’s escaped from his Faustian pact and thrown in his lot with a considerably less treacherous religious/mythological figure. On Zeused UP, Notion uses the Greek King of the Gods to represent a downright superhuman feeling of well-being. Those who aren’t hypnotized by DJ Jacks Green‘s beat, a blissfully mellow blend of slow-rolling percussion and liquid guitar riffs, will find that the emcee’s bars aren’t so much a celebration of his superhuman abilities, but reflect his acceptance of life’s ceaseless changes—from the inexorable march of time to the inevitable rise and fall of close friendships. Capped off with a dazzling chopped-and-screwed outro (featuring cuts by DJ Rise), this jam is as fitting for a solo headphone session as for an early-fall barbecue (with or without “pages from The Stranger” on the grill). Though this joint isn’t attached to any forthcoming project, those digging it should keep it locked for all the latest from the Northwestern buzzmaker.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11684	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs The Northwest continues to reign supreme when it comes to fresh, new hip hop talent. I have a feeling a few listeners will find Notion's vocal tone to be borderline annoying, but his flow is on point and the production accompaniment is headphone heaven. I'm a fan. Follow @DJBooth

Stefan C. DJ Booth Member Total Ratings: 40	Rating: Stefan C.'s Top Rated Songs Sounded kind of bland to me. A little to much ABAB rhyme scheme. All around just too simple of a song with not a whole lot of depth in my opinion.
