Roosh Williams ft. Chanel - Wake Up Dead

Roosh Williams - Wake Up Dead

Producer: Sindustry

Album: Common Struggles of a Modern Man

Label: Unsigned

Houston has long been known as a hotbed for rap music in both the commercial and underground industries. Roosh Williams, a newcomer to DJBooth, brings with him the Houston style The Geto Boys and Scarface made popular - rather than the often more superficial styling’s of Lil Flip, Paul Wall, etc. - on the Sindustry-produced record Wake Up Dead. Over a beat built around a thick atmosphere, created out of eerie blues based slide guitar, Williams delivers reality based lyrics that clearly illustrate the theme of his album, Common Struggles of a Modern Man. Adding depth to the track is singer Chanel, who brings another sublime dimension to the song with her delivery of the bridge, hook, and the occasional adlib. Overall, Wake Up Dead shows polish and is constructed in a pop format (verse/chorus/verse/chorus/etc.), which should bode well for the song, even though the subject matter is of a more serious nature. For more genre-bending hip-hop be sure to check out Roosh’ Common Struggles album, available for free download now.

Hubbard DJ Booth Member Total Ratings: 1	Rating: Hubbard's Top Rated Songs This is my favorite song that Roosh has created thus far. I think it goes a long way to show how much range he has an artist. I think he can appeal to many different people for many different reasons, but its in this form that I personally feel him the most.
