Why do we like this?

Flow, delivery and lyricism. Meet Nick Grant, an emerging artist from South Carolina. Sounding like a southern Nas-incarnate, Grant makes spitting over this Organized Noize produced track-- the same group responsible for many of Outkast's songs -- look easy.

It's rare a hip-hop artist has this much raw talent and passion, and seems compelled solely by his love for making music. Whether you're a hip-hop fan or not, if you appreciate lyrics with a salient message and smooth instrumentation, including Ricco Barrino's sweet-sweet crooning over the hook, Nick Grant is an artist you need to experience.

P.S. he's got a great Tiny Desk Concert so peep that if you're vibing with him.

By Dylan Heneck on Oct 16, 2018 | There's a delicate line I'm balancing on this review. Avantdale Bowling Club is a father, and a struggling musician vocal about his plight, so I'd like to keep my tone respectful, even though cracking jokes is my thing. The music industry has been in... read more →

By sweeney kovar on Nov 7, 2015 | It's work to find new talent, especially in hip-hop. So many people sound like other people sounding like someone else. It sucks. Most 'tastemaker' websites, except the one you're reading now, suck. Thankfully there's a few good ones amidst the crap,... read more →
