XV - Everything Is Cool
Artist: XV
Producer: 7
Album: The Square In The Circle
Label: Square Bound Music/Warner Bros.
With his out-of-this-world flow, it’s no wonder emcee XV, born Donavan Johnson, claims to be from the fictional planet of Squaria. On the heels of his Lil’ Wayne-assisted Booth feature, U Got It, is the new song, Everything is Cool. Found on A Square in the Circle, the latest volume of his Coolniverse mixtape series which dropped earlier this month, the rapper once again illustrates why he stands out in a crowd. Using a unique mixture of wit and charm, XV rides a ‘70s-influenced intergalactic beat from producer 7, which will truly appeal to “all the hipsters and gangsters.” Keep it locked to DJBooth for future updates on this up-and-coming sensation - or you could always visit him at his pad in Squaria.
This song first appeared on the
Independent Chart
on August 18, 2008

I like this. XV is definatly gettin it in with this one. To be honest I disagree he fits right in these days. He's apart of the kanye, pharrell, lupe , cool kids, group of people. The Ustabebackpackers!!!

Hey, I definitely like this even more than his last track. This is dude is ill. He speaks the truth and he is refreshingly ill. 7's production is real tight. I would play this over and over again.

i like the jazz in the backround of the beat the track is hot an his flow is out of this world....im going to be lookin out for this kat he has a couple of tracks on the booth and they all have some pretty high ratings.....also i like how the beat switches up in the middle of the song...he kinda reminds me of one of my favorite artist LUPE FIASCO....this song is definitly on my new mixtape THIS AINT A GAME V.2

now that's what I'm talking bout...the elevation melody as far as the production is not only fresh, but for some reason has some old skool to it, he does remind me of Lupe, but he still manages to stand out, nice beat change also, didn't expect that

What's going on DJBooth!!! I appreciate EVERYONE'S comments and ratings on this song. I take alot of pride in this song because it is one of my favorites on the mixtape, "The Square In The Circle", so I like hearing what people hear in what I create. I figured the Lupe Fiasco comments would come, but in NO WAY, SHAPE or FORM am I purposely creating a style like his. As for comics...I am a comic book FANAAAAATICCCC!!!!!! I've never heard Lupe talk about comics before, but I have been collecting comics since I was 11 years old. That's just me, forreal. I just appreciate everyone taking the time out to check out AND comment this record. And if you want to hear more that I am about, download the entire mixtape at www.myspace.com/XtotheVizzy! Shouts to DJ Z and the DJBooth reps!!

What a great song. XV is definetely one of those LupeKanyeCoolKidsKidzInTheHallPharrel type rappers and it's great. They defione what music should be about, and thats making sure your style is one like no other. The lyrics are cool, the beat is cool, and this nigga is cool. Everything is everything and everything is cool. I only know one way to rate this kind of greatness... CLASSIC!!

I loved the Best of the booth idea Z! if it wasn’t for it, I would have missed this gem back from the summer when I “abandoned” the booth!
This is incredible! Loved “both” beats, but the unexpected beat change is amazing! His flow/voice is too much like Lupe Fiasco, but I’m not the kind of person to see it as a negative aspect. I’d rather hear XV’s fresh lyrics before 80% of mainstream rap. This is great! |
