Will Brennan - This Land
Artist: Will Brennan
Producer: Somong
Album: Rite Of Passage
Label: Unsigned
Update: Click “Listen Now” above to watch Will’s “This Land” video.
As anyone who’s watched Schoolhouse Rock knows, knowledge is power—and, while important steps have been made in the direction of civil rights and racial equity, the U.S. educational system and popular culture does black Americans a grave disservice by whitewashing (literally) the contributions of African people and societies to world history, science and philosophy. Here to take a preliminary step toward rectifying the situation is Will Brennan, who informs his brothers and sisters that “This Land is your land” on his latest single (a Booth-exclusive world premiere!). Over Somong‘s soulful yet steely-eyed sample work, the Florida mic-murderer spits a rueful depiction of life in the urban jungle before launching into a crash course on the achievements of African antiquity, many of which were later appropriated and attributed to Western intellectual icons like Ptolemy, Socrates, Aristotle and Hippocrates. Feeling this edutaining selection? Then prepare for more knowledge to be dropped on Brennan’s Booth-sponsored Rite of Passage LP, scheduled for release Feb. 16. In addition, watch for this record’s official video to hit the ‘net in the near future.

Today, I will use each song title in my feedback. Cool, huh?
... um... uh... struggling to creatively insert this song title into my feedback in an effortless manner. "This Land" was made for (hip hop listeners) like you and me *hums melody* |

I agree with you guys. This is real hip-hop. I like the beat and how it mellows out towards the end. Good listening music.

This is my favorite cut by Will thus far. He has a real agile flow and is spitting something with real content and message.

Will really separates himself from the rest of the crop of up-and-comers. Who else could mix high octane flows with insightful lyrics that carry an important, coherent, and inspirational message.
