Serius Jones - Gimme That Love
Artist: Serius Jones
Producer: Finatik n Zak
Album: Life Is Serius Soundtrack
Label: Unsigned
Though Serius Jones parted ways with DTP/Def Jam in ‘08, the Jersey emcee’s determined to tell his story regardless of how much, or how little backing he has; he’s even chronicled his life and career to date in a 25-minute film entitled Life Is Serius. Released back in March, the short is well worth watching—in addition to being absolutely hilarious at points, it offers a tantalizing preview of the tunes set to appear on the forthcoming soundtrack LP. Though I don’t recall where (or if) official lead single Gimme That Love appears in the film, this record would sound right at home played as either an overture or an accompaniment to closing credits. Over Perth, Australia-repping production duo Finatik n Zak‘s exultant brass and strings, Serius lets listeners know that, now that’s he’s made it this far, failure is no longer a possibility, and Norwalk, CT-based R&B singer Omar Wilson echoes the rapper’s unflappable confidence with some triumphant hook vocals. A sweeping track that’ll have devotees and new fans alike doing just as the title says, this single is just the thing to spur interest in the rapper’s Life Is Serius Soundtrack, due out in August—here’s hoping it also gets some love from the major label talent scouts.

Serius Jones has been pretty solid in all of his features in his own way. Keeps me listening every time - I love the way this one rocks and gave a great street vibe.

This is what you call full production, the sound blend is enough. Soulful! This is the best track I've heard serious spit on so far, however I haven't heard much from him. Never saw the rap reality show he was on, but I heard he would rip cats.

I am with BDF - best OVERALL record from Serius that I have heard. If someone knows if something that blows this away, let me know - I am all ears.
The production work here is incredible. I would listen to this instrumental on repeat.

I started checking for him after I heard his "Help, I've Been Robbed" on booth.
Dope! as fcuk ... Serius is provin not to just be a battle rapper... Dude is evolving and is honestly trying to get better as MC (based on some songs I liked and dislike as well). Too bad he got dropped from a major he could be big i think ... Definitely looking forward to his upcoming LP ... |

Production is great, love all the brass and strings is just beautiful!
This guy... something about his flow and voice tone kept me thinkin of Tupac! You can tell there's a movie behind these lyrics, nice effort! The rap singin chorus worked very well. |

The production sounds like it could be a movie theme... so it doesn't surprise me that dude filled an entire short wit his tracks. I'm wit FredRico: love the orchestra section and the horns. Serius spits some very nice lines and impressed me. My only complaint is that the vocals were a notch too soft and were a bit overpowered by the boardwork.
