"I Feel You" by Chris Rivers ft. Jose Vargas [Music Video]

"I'm the prodigal's son/
And all the profit in my pockets couldn't buy me some gum, I feel like robbin' with guns/
I feel like sellin' some drugs/
I know my sis and mom's contemplating selling some love/
And I ain't talkin' bout hugs/"

Chris Rivers is definitely able to keep it consistent. This video popped up on my feed this morning and it's pretty dope. It's got a nice mellow beat and chorus that suit these powerful verses perfect. The video's done well also. Check it!

"Enjoy the Atmosphere" by Styles P ft. Chris Rivers & Tyler Woods

"I used to touch keys like a piano/
Pitchin' with Jadakiss and Sheek Luciano/
Used to push the Lexus with work up in the panel, or the door and the bumper/
How much work can you handle? Take it all, I'm a pumper/"

Man this track's cool. And it's sick to see this Chris Rivers dude gettin' to hook up with bigger names in the biz. That would normally bug me, being that his buzz could mainly be from him being Big Pun's son. But he's actually sick, and not just using his fathers fame to acquire his own fame without contributing to hip-hop. I'm not a huge Styles P fan, but there's certain tracks by him that I can dig for the street elements that he presents. I don't think this song's from a specific project at the moment.

"Shade45 Freestyle" by Chris Rivers

"The world is filled with liars desire to burn in fire/
But hell exists in my mind and the devil seems to admire/
My cerebral cause, provoked to always re-record/
I try to express my pain, but these words don't seem to feel no more/"

I really like this video. The first time I heard of Chris Rivers was on Vinnie Paz' "God of the Serengeti" album on a track called "Last Breath". I know he's Big Pun's son, and his verse was sick on that Vinnie track, but I never really looked into his solo music. Found this video today and decided to check it out, and he actually killed it. I can tell that he's followed the footsteps of his father in terms of keeping the rhymes and flow constantly on point, but he's got his own style as well which makes him unique from his father. Near the end DJ Kay Slay started throwing words at him, and that's when you can witness his ability to improvise on the spot. Pretty cool video, check it.
