Sir Aah - And the Beat Rocks On...
Artist: Sir Aah
Featuring: Royce Da 5'9" , Crooked I
Producer: Sureet
Album: The Real Punjabi MC
Label: Tax Free Records
Crazy as it may sound, it’s already been a year since Michael Jackson‘s untimely death on June 25, 2009. Appropriately then, Booth newcomer Sir Aah kicks his debut set’s lead single off with a dedication to the late King of Pop and a sample from an early demo of Beat It. After the reverent intro, And the Beat Rocks On… shapeshifts into a sex/club jam that has little connection to MJ, but, hey, it’s the thought that counts – and what ensues is pretty damned dope in it’s own right. Backed by Sureet‘s Bollywood-infused production, The Real Punjabi MC joins forces with one-half of lyrical supergroup (and his label bosses) Slaughterhouse; Motown street vet Royce Da 5’9” and Long Beach underground mainstay Crooked I lace the record’s latter two-thirds with a characteristically on-point mix of braggadocio and game-spitting. Does Beat Rocks On leave you craving more? You’ll be able to find plenty more lyrical fire and globetrotting beats on the up-and-comer’s forthcoming LP, scheduled to hit record stores August 10. In addition, watch out for this track’s official video accompaniment, also set to drop in August.

I'm getting tired of all this Michael Jackson. The beat on this was pretty good but I didn't like the lyrics all that much. The best verse was probably Royce Da 5'9.

Beat was pretty annoying in my eyes, Sir Aah was like Aaaaah stop rapping. Royce en Crooked were sick, as always.

"..you couldn't walk in my shoes with three socks on.." Crazy line but seriously Sir Aaa you could use some serious improvement.

Royce was the best part of this song, his lines were crazy. This is also rare but I slept on Crooks verse, not a good sign.

Bit of a Khaled/Diddy situation in which the overall track's decent, and the guest rappers are dope, but the man himself (Sir Aah) has by far the weakest flow.
Was that "Maybach" line from Royce a Rick Ross diss, or am I starting beef unnecessarily? |

Royce murdered this record. End of feedback. Nothing left to say, sorry.
