I honestly thought the first line was biggie sample. he's decent though for sure.

This is the only thing i have heard from him, so i cant vouch for a full album, its free on soundcloud. His voice definitely has a BIG flavor to it, mixed with a little redman. I think he is from buffalo.

If he's from upstate then that's my boy Q from way back. He played ball at Howard and would rap on campus. Dude was on his shit then too. We battled once in the semi finals of a battle once.

this is fresh.

slight Biggie voice comparison (almost equal to Shyne in 1999), but more like Jay Electronica's mindstate moreso than KRS-One's

cool beat. just going for his. get it, homie.

(I came in here because we share the same name: "Lateef" :rofl: . Me, Lateef the Truthspeaker and this dude are all doing that name justice, ha ha)

nothing wrong with this song

When he says "Come off the bench, like put me in for you, coach" = Ghost of Christopher Wallace. I hear KRS and Killah Priest too.
He's as refreshing as Jay Elec was a few years back.
Whole "Rebel Forces" was good. He should put out another video off it.
