Featured on our front page back in December of 2011, Sammy Adams’ first release as an RCA signee found the artist adding an alternative edge to his sound by way of a sample from the Pixies’ classic Where Is My Mind. Five months later, however, details on a freshman set are still sketchy, so he’s opted for a change in strategy. Setting aside—at least for the moment—the eclectic samples that characterized many of his previous features, the Boston phenom’s mounting a frontal assault on dance floors everywhere with Only One. Here J.O.B.‘s synth-drenched four-on-the-floor production (with light electric-guitar flourishes) sets the stage for a classic tale of young love. In high-energy verses, the emcee addresses a girl he recently met, describing his dawning realization that she had eclipsed all other females in his mind: “I can’t go out and I can’t look around, ‘cause none of these girls compare to you.” All the pieces are in place, but do they add up to a hit? Debate away, Booth readers—and keep you browsers locked you-know-where for the latest as Sammy Adams firms up plans for his major-label debut.

Hip-pop with a alt rock edge? This is radio gold.

i'm giving this a 4/5 rating because althrough it was great i believe it wasn't sam adams at his best. If you want Sam Adams at his best than i suggest you to listen to lion's den and Kimber (rip) on his boston opening day mixtape. After those two mixtapes he just became an ok rapper

I agree with DJ Booth Crew...radio gold! You can fight it, but sooner or later this kid's flow is stuck in your head. Just DL the single off iTunes!
