Influenced by Chicago’s conscious “Big Three” of Kanye, Common, and Lupe, Twin Cities representative Young Son is unleashing A Timeless Classic to the world. Using Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell’s Ain’t No Mountain High Enough as his backdrop, the Soul Inspired MC tells his life story; despite the problems he and his family have overcome, Young Son considers himself a regular man. While conscious music is rarely heard from independent artists looking for their shine, A Timeless Classic stands out amongst its peers and puts YS in good company alongside his fellow Midwest rap-thinkers.
The funky sample is very appealing. He has a nice, simple flow, nothing to go crazy over. I'm looking forward to hear more stuff from Young Son in the future.
I'm not really feeling his lyrical sound...I guess it will have to grow on me if he makes it through. The production is tight. Decent track that I wouldn't mind playing back again...so it goes in rotation.
Thanx for all the feedback everybody. It's much appreciated. I'm just a young emcee. This was my first album. All feedback and words of improvement is always appreciated. No doubt.

Nice beat. Simplistic flow, but expresses good messages. Not perfect, but better than the commercial crap thats on the radio now a days. Check out my music also. www.myspace.com/arothehero
Potential for a Timeless Classic? Possibly. The production of the beat was on hella point, the flow was nice, but someone can only go up from this, you know? The combination of lyrics and musical background enhanced the feel of this song, in my opinion, so I'd have to dub this a bit above the average, everyday, Rap Music you hear on the radio OR even on Myspace. Now don't get me wrong because I myself am a B-boy and dance to some records, but, this one right here has a bit more potential then most: so I give'em props, respectively.
Do what you do fam.
I like it. I heard the entire album. He has a few nice punch lines, and a few wack ones lol...but hes still a good listen. His production is nice and hes flows are good. My favorite song is "This Far"
He got a banger.
This joint is hotness! I don't know why people hating....seems like I be seeing DjRoyale on hear hating on a lot of stuff just because. That's stupid. This dude came off on this...ain't that same cliche ignorance we been hearing. I know it would be cliche to say he a breath of fresh air too, but that's just what it is. This is a quality joint content wise that also bangs and could be a fan favorite. 5 Stars. This ain't brown-nosing. This is simply giving props where props is due

Young Son is repping Minnesota hard and he is something new...haters stop hating! You know he brings the soul back to hip hop! From the words of A.B. "YOUNG SON IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR!"
Track was ill, the beat is flames and Young Son definitely did his thing. What the dude above me was saying about a breath of fresh air is definitely true, Young Son is a very positive cat and thats what we need. And to be so young wise beyond his years. Hes only gonna get better 2. Good work Young Son.
