The Pro Letarians - 33 Vergions
Artist: The Pro Letarians
Producer: JO (of The Pro Letarians)
Album: None
Label: Unsigned
In Karl Marx’s (in)famous theoretical writings, the father of communism describes how the proletarians (or wage laborers) will use their strength in numbers to seize the means of production from the bourgeoisie and create a new society from the ashes of the old. While the The Pro Letarians’ first feature is light on the political rhetoric, the Indiana duo are clearly determined to live up to their revolutionary moniker in the musical realm; as evidenced by unreleased cut 33 Vergions, Jupiter Jim and JO aren’t about to quit till they’ve taken over the whole damn game. JO keeps it light and airy on the production tip, layering chopped synth riffs over a bouncy kick-handclap beat as his mic-rocking colleague mixes wordplay-driven braggadocio (“Black child with some Lays up on my collarbone / That is, I got a chip up on my shoulder”) with playful (if un-P.C.) references to international affairs. “Girlfriend told me I’m so Obama / Make ‘em run in here and get Gaddafi’d, Osama.” Are these Midwestern hopefuls destined to (in the immortal words of Biggie Smalls) “[blow] up like the World Trade?” Those who answer in the affirmative should stay tuned for more fresh music leading up to the release of The Pro Letarians’ Hello Forever LP this spring.

These are some of the most laid back, but talented kids I've ever met. They threw a dope first concert out in Terre Haute.

Super moody, slightly out of left field, and oddly enjoyable for multiple listens. I am not sure the overall direction of their material, but I am intrigued enough to want to find out.

Never heard of these cats, but this is dope as hell. Love the avicii sample. They definitely did it AND the Biggie sample justice.

I like it. I like it a lot. It is different enough from the same ol', same ol' but still maintains a good foundation in hip hop. Good lyrics. I am going to check for them.

I smell pure hip hop (classic style) artist potential here. I'd like to hear more as well.

This beat is CRAY by JO. OMG, the BIG sample is creatively used and the other samples fit just right. Even without the samples, the beat itself is knocking with great basslines and other sounds to just draw you in. The Pro Letarians really spazzed out on this too. GREAT flows by you guys. I'm definitely feeling this. REWIND! BANGER!

I liked the song as a whole, but here is my beef with it as far as production goes. It seemed as though there was a lot going on at once, so it was hard to really focus in on what was being said. I do, however, love the sample that they managed to work in. Could listen to it all day if I had to. This was an all around good track for me. I'd throw it in rotation.

I would've been at the concert in Terra Haute, but I was dick and ditched them. I realized how stupid I was when I heard 33 Vergions. It's sick.
