Project Lionheart - Heart of a Lion (Remix)
Artist: Project Lionheart
Featuring: Crooked I
Producer: Caleb Cunningham [for Lionheart Music Productions.]
Album: The Art of Resistance (Special Edition)
Label: Sound Records
The press release regarding Project Lionheart‘s The Art of Resistance (Special Edition) describes the Seattle natives’ first Booth feature, Heart of a Lion as “...a mission statement about being badass,” and, to be honest, I could pretty much stop right there. A DJBooth track review tends to run longer than one sentence, though, so I’ll continue. Presented here in remixed form, the track finds frontman Caleb Cunningham and West Coast underground mainstay/Slaughterhouse member Crooked I joining forces to assert their bad-assery and vent their fury at industry shysters. Cunningham handles production duties as well, crafting an ominous, piano/synth-driven instrumental with the help of guitarist TJ Berry and bassist Jerrod Keith. Topped off with a fittingly ferocious, rough-hewn sung hook, this track is sure to win praise from fans of innovative rock-rap concoctions. Featuring remixed and remastered versions of each track off the group’s debut full-length, as well as four brand new tracks, TAoR: SE is set to hit stores next Tuesday, Oct 6.

I've never been a fan of forced rock-rap concoctions, but Project Lionheart know exactly what they are doing. And who better to feature on this remix that the versatile Crooked I?
Caleb reminds me a bit of a Mike Shinoda. Works for me!

TALENTED!!!!!! All LIVE musicians?!?!? WOW. A Crooked I co-sign doesn't hurt either. The flow is effortless, and seems to stay fluid even though the topic is pretty rough.
Will DEF keep my eye out for more. Nicely done... |

I'm all for rap/rock music! As long as it's well done... this is. The beat is nice, rapping was good also, the bassist did his thing, but I wanna hear more guitar if you're a rock influenced rap group.
@$arah: yeah, they reminded me of Linkin Park days too, but with a more rap oriented sound... ;) Man... Crooked I... DAMN! He's just GREAT!!! GOAT material! 3.5*, but I'll round up cuz I wanna hear more. |

Man I LOVE ROCK!!!! SO THIS IS A FIVE STAR TRACK TO ME!!!! I've never heard of Project Lionheart before but they are ill. The production from Caleb was superb. I'm a big fan of rap/rock collaborative music. Two great genres coming together for complete FIRE! Crooked I was such a great choice for this song. Let a lyrical undergroung beast blaze the track! I liked the first verse too though. But yeah, Crooked shut it down at the end like I was expecting him to. I haven't heard the original but I might check it out.
