Mike Dreams - I Just Wanna Be...
Artist: Mike Dreams
Producer: Noah "40" Shebib
Album: Dreamer's Poetry LP
Label: MUSIC2DREAM2
The 57th entry in our DJBooth.net Freestyle Series comes courtesy of Young Son, the Minneapolis up-and-comer and site member who recently wrapped up his reader-acclaimed, Booth-exclusive Counting Sheep series. On his brand new, previously-unreleased I Just Wanna Be… freestyle, the underground emcee flows over a Noah “40” Shebib-produced beat originally featured on Drake‘s Successful. Young Son is currently preparing for the release of his second studio album, Dreamer’s Poetry (set to drop “soon”); in the meantime, be sure to check out his newly-premiered interview with DJ Z, as well as downloading a free copy of his DJBooth.net-sponsored Counting Sheep Mixtape, set to hit our front page tomorrow, the 17th.

 Ah, I KNEW it was this song. Since he's a Drake fan after all, and it sounds like his sorta song.
Another great job, over what was an already good song, which is difficult to do. Most people just get overshadowed and forgotten instantly. "Successful" is actually one of my favourite songs off "So Far Gone". |

I am sure I will get a few "hatemails" for this comment, but I totally dig this version over Drake's. Listen to those words, maaaaaaaaaan. Yessir.

And the Summer of the Son! begins.
YS = best rapper in the game not signed to a Major. (yeah, I said it) Which is soon to change once the label heads quit jocking the fads & mess with the real. |

This is one of the most attention-grabbing freestyles yet--really intense, and different than what we've heard thus far in the series.
Young Son is gonna do big things. |

Young Son more then held his own against a already dope track. Solid effort mate.
Probably the best freestyle ive heard in the last month in this series. |

Hell yes!!! I knew his freestyle would be hot, and it turned out to be so much more. This speaks loud and clear.
"They throw realness in the trash, We throw realness on replay." Beautiful god-damned track!!! By the way, I got my watch back. Two good things have happened in the course of one hour: me getting to move on, and me listening to this track. |

Perfect type of beat for YS to spit on. The epic futuristic beat makes for a great listen with the homie dropping lyrical knowledge. Bravo.

This isn't my type of hip hop, but MH you are really talented! Never expected you could flow like this! U r wayyy better than many famous rappers out there who do lots of collabos and I don't know why coz they suck! My fav song of urs is "My Bus Ride Home"! Keep up the good work!

If I never knew Young Son my opinion would still be the same I love it! I personally feel that Young Son had more to talk about than Drizzy on this song... I've always had a problem with "Hoes" being defined as a form of Success (The create more Problems than Profit!) lol

This is definately a classic track right here!
These are the lyrics or a true Hip Hop Dreamer. Props to drizzy for laying down his lines...but I feel as though Young Son had a much more powerful message. I'm glad to have the opportunity to work with an artists that is serious about their artistry. Much love family! Keep working hard! Success is much closer than you think. |
