Riginal8 - a game-changer in the hip-hop realm

Rapper riginal is aiming to be a game-changer in the hip-hop realm which is aching for new voices and a fresh perspective. In Fly Away from his mixtape Mens Rea the rapper puts his longtime writing skills to work as a would-be rapid-fire impresario offering a highly personal lyric about self-discovery and more specifically a journey that begins with being misjudged and dismissed while all along his potential was seething below the surface. riginal offers I swear to god I was haunted How do you talk to a kid who appears to be afraid And at the same time lost in the wind before he reveals redemption I found His gift within me This secret and special talent allows me to succeed. The instrumental back-track meanwhile also forges forward amid a fervent swirl of strings rubbery bass and the thump thump of insistent percussion. Perhaps best likened in vocal texture to Snoop Dogg in Fly Away riginal offers the bravado of many hip-hop acts that came before but with a determination drive and lyrical revelation that shows this guy is serious about his art... and making his life count.
