In his official bio, Booth newcomer ScienZe explains that he adopted his stage name because, if “science is the study of all things,” then “[he is] the study of hip-hop.” That’s one lofty claim – does the Brooklynite truly personify the entire body of knowledge we call hip-hop? I can’t think of a way to test that assertion but, after taking a listen to new single Let Em Know, I’m not inclined to argue the point. Supported by Booth fave 6th Sense‘s appropriately gritty, piano-led production, ScienZe delineates his back-to-the-basics artistic philosophy. Though he’s disenchanted with the current state of the genre, he expresses confidence that ‘real hip-hop’ will triumph over mainstream wackness: “It’s the return of that old organic, snares hit your soul with the heat no fannin’ / The radio be sick and every day it’s automatic, featherweights float, this that old titanic.” Think this studious up-and-comer’s got what it takes to move the game forward? Then sharpen your #2 pencils and jot down “December 20,” the release date for his forthcoming Hall Pass LP. And yes, that will be on the test.

Short and sweet Sunday feedback: Real nice look for ScienZe to grab himself up a 6th Sense beat. "Let Em Know" has a distinct early 90s vibe. Which, for our older readers, will be favorable.

This is a hot track and a different sound for Scienze, this shows his talented versatility as an artist. Just as any of his material

This is a pretty good song, not great tho. Its a solid record from ScienZe, with some good quality in it..... I like the production from 6th Sense, but i can see it getting a lil annoying after a while. But overall, this is enjoyable smooth listen. I dont see this being a hit, or me listening to it any longer after a few times. I rate this a 3 cuz ita not that bad, but not that good. Not cuz its in rotation, cuz its not.....
