With the Writer’s Guild strike potentially affecting the broadcast of this year’s Grammy Awards in February, the world might not get the chance to see the similarities among this year’s Hip-Hop nominees. Hailing from both the south and west side of the city, Chicago is well represented in all five rap categories by its leading men: Kanye West, Common and Lupe Fiasco. Looking to capitalize on the spotlight the previously mentioned artists are giving the city, 8-year veteran rapper Versatile is prepping his new (untitled) independent release. Leading off the album is the street level single, A, which is highlighted by the Eminem-sounding production courtesy of producer 1120. By the age of fourteen, Versatile landed a track from legendary producer No I.D.; something tells us that this Chicago MC is in store for many more career highlights.

The beat reminds somehow of You Don’t Know by Eminem etc, it's that strong and engaging; Versatile has a good flow and sounds more like Ca$his than Ice Cube or Obie (see exactly You Don’t know)

Honestly, I think this dude's flow is very old school sounding and not good enough to make it in a world of these new word-play-savvy artists. This beat is also pretty weak to me. He is nothing like the other Chicago MC's at all. He sounds like a fake Obie Trice (who I am sure would murder him in a battle)

I was amazed to see this artist on here with this song... I have heard a lot of other songs from him that would blow you all away but who knows why this song was chosen.
