Tha Advocate - Where I Come From ft. Stat Quo, Big Lou, & Mr. Probz
Artist: Tha Advocate
Featuring: Stat Quo
Producer: Jeff Burna and Tha Advocate [for Ruff Houze Prod.]
Album: DD6 (Hosted by STAT QUO) / Designed To Be Signed
Label: Unsigned
Tha Advocate‘s Booth debut, 9678, was a nostalgia-laden look at late-‘90s hip-hop that took old souls on a trip down Memory Lane but left a few new-schoolers cold. On his second feature, however, the emcee/producer’s anchored firmly in the here and now, and he’s teamed up with a fellow Jersey rapper, an ATL up-and-comer, and a representative of the Dutch underground to discuss the ins, outs, ups, and downs of their respective hoods. Where I Come From finds Advo doing double duty; as well as following Stat Quo‘s A-town-repping verse and Big Lou‘s vivid portrayal of Camden corruption with a warts-and-all portrait of his Essex County surroundings, he rejoins forces with 9678 collaborator Jeff Burna to craft a midtempo beat that erupts into brass-fueled fanfare when Holland’s Mr. Probz delivers his gruff hook. In addition to appearing on his recently released, Stat Quo-hosted Digital Dynasty 6 mixtape, this cut will be included on the tracklist of Advo’s forthcoming sophomore album, Designed To Be Signed.

Really solid all-around effort. This beat is just itching to get picked up for a movie soundtrack. Something in the New York underground, maybe? Haha

This was a great track and I was feelin it from the start. I agree on the fact that it would go well on a movie soundtrack. The production was good and all of the artists came hard.

The production is on point throughout and makes it sound a anthem song with the beat during the hook. The lyrics are good as well. In rotation

i did like stat quo which im glad to say because i havent been a fan of some of his recent stuff, and the hook is just very well i guess richard "gruff" is the word to use...overall a very eclectic mix of sounds but they mesh well |

It's always a pleasure to listen to rappers doing what they're suppose to: lyrics, flow and passion on point.
Only a bit more creativity could bring the rating up, but it's already a bliss they harmonize with the music. Beat belongs to an Eminem epic! It's really good, and the hook is very well done and fresh! |

Niiiiiice piano loop. It's kinda hypnotizing and serves its purpose, nice production overall. Great stories/lyricism/wordplay make this track hott for me. The only thing I wasnt diggin too much was the hook, but that was aight.
