Novel - Hood Chick
Artist: Novel
Featuring: Rapper Big Pooh
Producer: Novel and Tony Reyes
Album: Calligraphy
Label: Unsigned
I’m a Novel fan, and if you’re a DJBooth regular, you are too. The Los Angeles based singer/songwriter/producer has earned a name for himself in the industry, and on our pages, for consistently dropping quality music. Unfortunately, his debut album has yet to see the light of day - due to all those pesky music business problems – but he hasn’t let that deter him from releasing new music like Hood Chick. On his latest offering the DJBooth Freestyle veteran employs his smooth, eclectic style to sooth all his listeners into a state of sedated bliss. Produced by the headliner himself and Tony Reyes, the song layers bass grooves and synthesizer rifts that make this a very easy listen, while Little Brother alum Rapper Big Pooh gives hip-hop fans a couple of bars to add edge to the easy-going track; which I personally think wasn’t necessarily need, but still welcomed. Bottom line, Hood Chick is a must listen and is set to be featured on Novel’s upcoming album Calligraphy, coming soon. Let’s hope the last part of that sentence proves to be true.

Novel, I really hope that you never retire from making music. This is exactly what I was expecting when I saw the feature on the home page.

Agree with RyanSx. This is what i expected as well, before i even pressed play. Novel continues to show his consistency making quality music. The fact that he's still unsigned seriously shocks me.

Not much time this week to share my full thoughts on every song feature, but I'll let my ratings speak for themselves without much additional commentary.

HUGE fan of Novel's music. This is exactly what I'd expect from Novel, which isn't bad, because I know I'm going to love it and enjoy it.

Great Song,SMOOTH--> Nice....like it way more "clean",but all in all it a good song,=but in my eyes "u make a "N" say"--NO!!. When u use the "n-word"in any form,To me this is the downfall of our new r/b artists, and why I don't support them as much as I would like to.
