Featured earlier this month, Unstoppable (Regional Remix) introduced the Booth to up-and-coming emcee Phil Nash, and, judging by the reader reviews, he couldn’t have made a better first impression.  If you were among those who considered the Motown motormouth’s rapid-fire rhymes the cut’s high point, you’re in for a treat; making its world premiere right here at DJBooth.net, mixtape cut Going Up sees the rapper employing the same hyperkinetic flow as he chronicles his climb to the top.  Pairing his out-of-this world delivery with decidedly down-to-earth lyrical substance, Nash describes the passion for music that keeps him going even when he’s flat broke and acknowledges the trials and tribulations that currently plague up-and-coming artists and average Americans alike.  Complete with a smooth, synth-driven instrumental by Lap on Trak, Going Up should have fans waiting with bated breath for the release of Dub Floyd Presents Phil Nash: He’s The DJ, I’m The Rapper later this week, as well as the emcee’s forthcoming contribution to our own exclusive freestyle series.

This is the kind of rap that I love! This dude is dope. I love his flow and the lyrics only make the song better. The production is great as well. 4.5 right here. I love these features of artists I have never heard of before. Definitely looking out for him in the future.

Nash is sick!!... I was introduced to dude when he performed at my skool a few times in DE. Being from NY and used MCs who go in, I was pleasantly surprised by his flow... and by the fact that he always perfoms with his IPOD headfones in his ears...smh
Big Ups to Nash nd keep makin those bangaz!

Thanx Djbooth! I'm always amazed at the fact that I still think twice about playin a song from an unknown artist judgin by song title, picture, or stuff like that... but then I remember I wouldn't want that to me.

Remix with T.I. and you got yourself a HIT Nash! Good job!
