A native of Boston (the city that has brought you DJBooth favorites Termanology and Akrobatik), rapper Sullee got his big break when he was selected as a contestant for MTV’s The White Rapper Show.  Though the opportunity provided a good experience, Sullee quit the reality competition after issues arose with his teammates.  Now, simply glad to be in charge of his own career, he is determined to stay on the grind by putting in hard work every day… including Today.  Super-producers Cool & Dre add some classic soul to their production, with Dre‘s singing hook enhancing—not outshining—Sullee’s rhymes.  While fans will argue that reality TV is based entirely on hip-hop gimmicks, Sullee seems bound and determined to change that stereotype.

I don't know about this one...I just think he may be trying too hard. I have to agree with SBHS. I give him a 2-stars for effort, but I don't think this is going to make it. I can't finish the track.

Maybe it's his voice, but I don't want to say that, because I was mad when people rated my songs based on that. But this seems generic.

Overall, the song has a good feel to it. I give Sullee credit on his energy on this track. In addition, he from BEANTOWN. I got to give my old state some love.

That building looks familiar. I think that is right next to Fenway park--a rich neighborhood, so no street cred from me, however, he did a decent job on the track.

I cant rate this because my opinion is too biased. That show was rediculous. I honesty still laugh at the idea of a white rapper show. Even just a plain rapper show would make it less of a novelty.

I usually expect a stronger effort coming out of Cool & Dre. Dre's vocals are terribly ineffective. I remember this dude on the show and along with all the other contestants, he really has a lot of work to do as an MC. I believe a white rapper needs to have twice as many skills than a black MC just to be even respected in hip-hop. He's gets a three for the conscious effort to deliver a meaningful message, something that is obviously lacking in rap.

The beat and music are great! The only thing I don't like here it's that he seems to sing at random...the song could be much better if he sang a lil better

he starts off by saying "i'm from the state where you aint supposed to make it..." but isn't he from massachusetts, where lots of wealthy, white people live? i figured the northeast is where any white person's supposed to make it...

anyway, love the production, Cool & Dre always layin it down.

Ok I know its hard everyone, but lets rate him because of this song, not because of "The White Rapper Show," or the color of his skin.





This song gets old quick because Sullee only spits like 10 lines at a time, and then the chorus kicks in. Dre cannot sing in my opinion, and needs to stick to the production.

I guess I am a sucker for Cool & Dre production, because this is solid. Had Burmy not included Sullee's rap history, half of these reviews would have been higher. Don't judge a book by its cover DJBooth fam. I'm anxious to hear more...

Well Cool & Dre definately made the beat well...but this is not a good track at all and if the beat wasn't hott then the song would be total garbage.

I think its a really nice song. It sounds at first like it will be soft at the beginning with the piano, but it turned out nicely.

its a chill track. cool and dre do their thing. ill listen to it more. btw the line about being "from the state your not supposed to make it" was referring to the rap game. dont turn it into some race-related generalization.

Z i couldnt agree more...you guys gotta stop prejudging...
(From his website)Some of the people that have already stepped into Sullee's world and given him their stamp of approval are Cool & Dre, Joe Budden, Busta Ryhmes, Rick Ross, Mims, Blackout, Producers Coalition of America, Claudette Ortiz, Billy Squier, and Teddy Riley on a rock track with Slash from Guns-Roses...
obviously they know what theyr doing
3.5 if i could

It’s a shame you’re basing your opinion on his skin color











It’s a shame you’re basing your opinion on his skin color! What
matters is he delivers better than the
average, has something to say, and don’t need a dance move to keep us (at
least me) listening! The production?! Come on!! It’s The Monsters! I’m listening
to the instrumental alone right now… it’s that good! Always love how they bring the bassline and give an overall
epic feel to their beats.
