In his home state of Virginia, underground MC Sketch has built up a reputation as a skilled battle rapper. Since modern-day participants are often unfairly labeled as one-dimensional, Sketch has been steadily on his grind promoting his new album, ill, working with underground veterans such as Trife Da God, Born Unique, and Illa Ghee (some say he outshines them). On his newest single, Hi Hata, Sketch spits over a lyrically-nimble beat, noting that while he has plenty of hometown haters, they still turn up their radio to hear his music. Hater or not, the inclusion of reggae artist Akshan and Bring It Back Entertainment‘s music box-bass instrumental make Hi Hata a smooth listen. ill (available now on local streets and online) is expected to hit stores nationwide in May.
When i first seen this song and this rapper i thought it was a huge JOKE.. but now that i've listened to it.. it isnt that bad at all, something i might listen to again but mostly just because i like the beat and Akshan Kills it!
yeah im liking the reggae feel to this mixed with dat hip hop vibe sketch sounds algud wudnt mind heaaring another song from him 2 c where hes at,yea i cud chuck this on again..
The reggae feel is becoming more and more popular in the underground rap scene. Over the past month or so, this was the best (out of about 4 or 5 new records we were sent) rap/reggae mixes. Sketch has some talent, lets see it develop more.
This actually isn't half bad at all. I like the beat on here and Sketch has a SERIOUS delivery! I can get with this flow! I want to hear more from this dude! Good $hit here!
This is cool! His flow fits the track well. The Beat is good. Somethin to listen to before the big game or during a work out. Reminds me of something in a soundtrack of a movie. good 3.5
This is more good than it is bad, so I guess if I play it a little more I might like it more. Right now, I think the beat is hot and the singer is fairly good.
