"Monster" by Iron Solomon ft. Saigon & Emilio Rojas

"This is cause for celebration for the Monster generation/

Who've been calm and sittin' patient for a proper education/

Or an honest explanation bout the trials and tribulations/

People dyin' in our nation, seeing lies on every station/"

If I hadn't known of Iron Solomon from rap battles online, I probably would never check his music out. But I'm thankful as hell that I discovered him, because he's a fucking beast who deserves a lot more recognition. When I seen that this track featured another two underdogs that I enjoy listening to, I had to check it out. My favourite part is Iron Solomon's verse. He kills it. I don't really have much more to say lol, just listen to this shit!

"Get On My Level" by Iron Solomon

"Wanna put they pretty pussies on my chubby little smile/

Wanna fuck me, wanna hump me, wanna hug me for survival/

Doesn't matter if they black or white, they love me like I'm Michael/

And the teacher told my parents I was just a different child/

Gotta A in all my classes, never studied for the finals/"

Shiiiiit. This guy's a beast. It's crazy enough that he kills the whole fucking song. But what's even more impressive is that he made this very sick beat as well. I really like this track, and the video has a lot of cool effects with parts in slo-mo while others are perfectly normal. You'll see what I mean. It makes skateboarding seem like such an intense thing to do while this guy's killin it on top of a ramp lmao. Anyways, this is some heavily lyrical shit, listen close.

Check out the album this song's from HERE.

"The Empire" by Iron Solomon ft.Talib Kweli

 
"Different backgrounds, but we came through the same struggle/

Dreamin' of fame, we wrote our names on the train tunnels/

Runnin' round the city like rats in crawlspaces/

Catchin' court cases for jackin' North Faces/"

I found this track from another blog page that I contribute posts to, FORM (which is also a very interesting page that you should check out). I've heard Iron Solomon from YouTube rap battles, but I haven't really sent my attention towards his music. I really liked the feel of the beat, which was produced by Iron Solomon, and the video contained a lot of interesting snapshots of NYC. Talib Kweli drops an alright verse as well, but my favourite part of the song is the 3rd verse, during the vintage film part of the video.
