The last time I heard a rapper spit from the perspective of a gun was in I Gave You Power, a track off Nas’ classic It Was Written LP.  With his latest street single, new BlackGround/Interscope signee Smitty takes the Queensbridge legend’s blueprint a step forward.  On Run N*gga Runnn, Smitty and NYC veterans The Last Poets speak from the perspective of three major contributors to death within the black community: guns, cocaine and AIDS. In verses packed with witty punchlines and similes, the collaborators advise African-Americans to stay far away from these destructive influences. Fans can find RNR and much more on Smitty’s long-awaited Hello America LP.  Here’s hoping the listening public heeds the veteran emcee’s greeting—and his message—when the album drops in the first quarter of 2010.

better title would have been "if bad influences could talk" deserves a 3.5 the witty comments really grab your attention plus the beat compliments and doesnt overtake sounds like a beat hova would have on any of his tracks

Nice to see Smitty exploring such topics. Way much better than his previous joint on booth feat T.I. titled "Mind on My Money" or was it the other way around.

For starters, the concept is one that I’m sure was
difficult to put to paper but Smitty and Poets certainly pulled it off quite well as they weave through different "destructive influences" with ease in a short amount of time ... 3.5

Smitty has been trying to "get on" for so long, it seems like he is a legit veteran. Veteran in years, that is, but not in material released. I like the deep message rooted in a seemingly message-less record. Looking forward to the official radio single for this forthcoming debut.
