REKS - This or That
Artist: REKS
Producer: Statik Selektah
Album: Rhymatic Eternal King Supreme (Teaser EP)
Label: Gracie Productions
If you don’t have anything good to say, don’t say anything at all.” That’s the scolding I got from my moms whenever I pointed out something I thought needed to be said, but was considered to be in the realm of things faux pas. Well my moms definitely won’t be pleased with Boston based emcee REKS, who’s determined to get some things off his chest with his latest record, This or That, a call-out to everything (and everyone) that has been bothering him lately. While consummate sampler and Showoff head honcho Statik Selektah mans the boards with a nod-inducing beat, REKS gives the music industry a piece of his mind on their current situation. From R. Kelly’s fallout to hipster-hop and Lil Wayne to Bow Wow, the King Supreme spares no one from the force of his lyrical hurricane. If you liked the microphone devastation currently swirling through your headphones, be sure to keep an eye out for the release date of REKS’ latest project, Rhymatic Eternal King Supreme (Teaser EP), which currently has no release date.

Unless most emcees who seemingly talk sh*t JUST to say they talked sh*t, REKS is in full effect (like the pun?) on this new joint. His bars are excellent, the execution is sincere and not a corny attempt at the spotlight, and the end result is overly enjoyable. Yes, yes, and yes!

There's nothing here that REKS said that really made me think, "Damn, I can't believe he said that", but on a musical level, this is nothing but dopeness. The beat, of course, is on point, and REKS absolutely murders his flow. Bonus star for my shameless hometown bias - Boston stand up!

Similar to Rawkus Records in the mid 90's, Showoff is quickly becoming the dominant force in today's underground Hip Hop scene. This is a perfect illustration of what I'm talking about.

Production overpowers REKS on this, also his flow seems way to jumbled, almost as if hes trying to keep up with the instrumental.

I've heard better from REKS, but the funny thing is he's talking about 75% of the rappers on djbooth
