The mastery of his cadence on this track makes it one of his strongest releases this year.

E-40 – Somebody Feat. Ricco Barrino (Video)

Slackin’ has never been part of E-40’s vocabulary. The Bay Area Legend made that clear in his new visual. In communication with The Fader magazine,  E-40 said he wanted to put himself an ordinary person’s shoes and express the grind he would put in to make it.

Ricco Barrino’s amazing hook makes this track a hit. The inspiration taken from his words and the passion in his delivery makes it hard not to feel the songs message.

With over 30 years in the booth it’s astonishing that 40 can still drop records that have an incredible impact, a trend he’s continued thanks to his uncompromising hustle . Enjoy and motivate yourself with the visual for ‘Somebody’ above.

Check Out The Visual For ‘Never’ From New Dreamville Signee J.I.D

Atlanta rapper J.I.D is making it a point to show another side of his city’s musical output. His delivery is complex to the point where you need and want to pay attention.
