What’s better then hearing a track with a collection of your favourite artists coming together to decimate an instrumental? Not much and that’s exactly what we have here! So let’s talk about it!

This is the brand new single by MC -Massiah Kaine with features -RJ Payne & -IAmProfit and -THVNOS on the production this quickly becomes a banger of a song that doesn’t waste a single second of the 3 minutes and 27 provides on this track!

If we start with the MC work on this album we get a banging series of back to back verses that feel even more titanic then the last! I’m talking bringing that hardcore 90’s era savagery into the modern day and this trio capture that feeling completely!
I love how they all seem to compliment each other while simultaneously sharpen their own skills and shine with their own unique characteristics and talents that make them stand out!
It’s clear after the opening verse your listening to 3 INDIVIDUAL rappers not a trio of clones who just copy the one that came before! These three men are some of the best spitters we have in the game and together they form their own ‘monster trio’ and it’s beautiful to witness!

As far as the production goes. We get this truly stellar beat that feels theatrical in nature! First of all you have this electronically heavy synth keys that make you feel like your playing ‘Cyberpunk!’ It somehow fuses into the rest of the instrumentation balanced even though it’s easily the most experimental feature of the beat!
This song also has some trademark, droning drum work with some delicate piano keys in the background which is joined by what sounds like a subtle choir vocal harmony in the background to increase the theatrical texture!

One of my favourite parts of the album is the mixing of Mike Tyson’s voice snippets. Whether he’s talking about hurting his opponents or saying that his next opponent isn’t Alexander (Alexander the great) or saying how ‘he’s gonna rip his heart out, I’m the best ever’ such dominant quotes that turn any track into a more badasss version and this song proves it!

As expected, another solid effort by Massiah! He’s recruited some true lyrical heathens to accompany him with one hell of a producer! If you ain’t on this one, then what are you on? Tune the fuck in!
