Voli - Blood Sweat & Tears
Artist: Voli
Producer: Voli
Album: TBD (Promo Single)
Label: Nouveau Classique
Voli may make crafting dope music look easy, but don’t get it twisted; his seemingly effortless freshness requires a constant supply of Blood Sweat & Tears. On this newly-released promo single, the Jersey rapper/producer (and freestyle series alum) gives listeners a taste of what it takes to do what he does on a daily basis. As usual, the emcee does double-duty on the mic and behind the boards, cooking up an intricate melange of jagged guitar riffs, sizzling synths and pensive bells to back bars dripping with feverish determination. Assuring listeners that nothing—nothing—is going to stop him from achieving the success he’s dreamed of for so long, he spits “ Trust me, trust me, I know I tell you every year / Just let my body catch up ‘cause my mind already there.” You can’t argue with Voli’s diligence and tenacity, but does he have the skills to pay the bills? I think I know the answer but, as always, Booth readers have the final say. Those who like what they’re hearing can peep the record’s official video here, as well as keeping it locked for all the latest from the Garden State fast-riser.

This is outstanding. I think Voli's only downfall is his skills as a producer overshadowing his work as an emcee/vocalist. Insert cliche statement _____ to indicate how 2012 will be a huge year for this talented individual.

Voli is on the Yeezy level of the scale in terms of productions. He does have a good feel as an emcee too as he took a brief interlude during one of his previous songs to shows us just how talented he is on both sides of the craft, I really want to see J. Cole push this guy, because his sound for music is incredible.

I like the beat by Voli, but the flow sounds somewhat forced and unnatural. It's all good though because the lyrics are still on-point. I'll give it a few spins. Chorus is kinda cheezy...
