Young Riot - Do It Again
Artist: Young Riot
Producer: D Spellz
Album: None (Promo Single)
Label: Unsigned
Regrets, we’ve all got a few. Whereas those who grew up in relative comfort tend to rue the risks we didn’t take - not making things work with that perfect guy or girl, not seizing the opportunity to pursue a grand ambition, etc. - it’s a different story for those who, like Young Riot, came up in circumstances where one false move could mean catching a bullet. On his latest promo single (a Booth-exclusive world premiere!), the Boston representative and a couple equally seasoned street denizens dust off a few memories that haunt each of them to this day, fantasizing about how things would have gone down were they able to Do It over Again. After an opener which finds the headliner reminiscing about an old friend in the pen, Da Drout grabs the mic to lace D Spellz’ moody street boardwork with bars stressing the dangers of consorting with snitches, and Sean Hines dedicates his closing 16 to a close homie who fell victim to a drive-by shooting. A sobering (but ear-pleasing) look into a world where life is cheap, this reflective jam is not attached to any forthcoming project. Those feeling it, however, can hear more from Riot on 2011’s Y.O.M.P. mixtape, still available for streaming and download in the Booth.

I didn't like the direction Riot was headed in earlier this year with his music, but a change in sound/style and production selection might have saved the day for him.

This is straight Hustla Music right here. I'm feelin this a lot. Good Lyrics by Young Riot and the Chorus goes Hard. The production by D Spellz is good and Da Drout came with the rider flow and good work by Sean Hines too. BANGER!

I been listening to Riot's music for a few years now. It's always dope when you hear the growth and progress. He was good before, now he's problematic. Good Stuff!
