Rite Hook - Lay It on Me
Artist: Rite Hook
Producer: Rob Whitaker
Album: The Other Side
Label: Leedz Edutainment
Rite Hook may be new to The DJBooth, but the combination of his stage name and the title of his new single tell you all you need to know about the Boston representative—specifically, that he’s a scrap-happy emcee who can take it as well as dishing it out. Making its world premiere right here on our front page, Lay It on Me is a gauntlet thrown at the feet of the entire industry… and whoever else in the vicinity happens to be ready for a fight. Over a Rob Whitaker beat whose lazy, keyboard-fortified oom-pah rhythm sounds like the instrumental equivalent of a schoolyard taunt, the Leedz Edutainment signee comes out swinging, delivering rhymes that would be utterly juvenile if they weren’t so skillfully phrased: “Oopsie, made a mistake, but my f*ckups are better than your mixtapes / Sh*tfaced, let ‘em get a swing on me, then you gonna miss and I’ll dis’ you b*tch / You’re a disgrace.” Rite Hook may be spoiling for a fight but, with bars like these, I doubt he’ll be met with much resistance in the Booth. As always, though, y’all get the final say. Those who like what they’re hearing should keep it locked for more quality tunes leading up to the summer arrival of his latest LP, The Other Side.

Real nice rock edge, with a hint of reggae bubbling under the surface. Rite comes hard, but its natural and fitting with his vocal, not forced. This is solid.

As a person RH (TN) is beyond a standup dude, but as an artist he's a hit or miss, and this unfortunately is the latter :( He has so much potential that is totally wasted on this joint, which in my humble opinion is simply a tediously boring track :(

Rite Hook has a pretty cool flow. This was pretty unique and the chorus was super-catchy. I can dig this.
