Thankfully, theres still some raw and pure talent still coming with that bare-knuckled real, and one of the true soldiers remaining is the Bronx-bred rapper, T.w.o.-G. Whilst most mainstream radio rappers hold on to Tony Montana fantasies, and continuously trade their souls for that one cross-over hit, this 28-yr old takes it back to the essence with ill tracks (the rapper actually chefs his own beats), dope flows, and original concepts.
The eloquent NYC-emcee characterizes his music as street gospel with curses, - a description that takes on full meaning once you soak in a cross-section of his material. For example, on Mediocre, a smooth, jazzed-up, bass-heavy joint, T.w.o.-G.s determination to rise above normalcy is immediately apparent when he spits lines like: The answer lies within me / To rise above mere mediocrity. Elsewhere on the same track, T.w.o.-G. delivers rousing street-sermons to cats caught up in the ghetto matrix with darts like: We must increase our trust fund / and get apartments over looking the Henry Hudson.
Another standout on the rappers demo is Down The Block From Freedom an intricate hip-hop tome that merges poignant narratives and inspirational themes over another exceptional, neck-snapping beat.
With this emcee, one finds a true rarity: the complete package. T.w.o.-G. possesses skills behind the boards, spits venom on the mic, and has originality and creativity for days. My aim is to provide the world with a new style of Hip Hop that showcases the real me flaws and everything, the all-round threat states. Those rappers who cant keep up with that will be forced to quit rapping, he continues. His talent and potential are so abundant that its just a matter of time before he gets his due. As far as his ultimate design for the game, the rapper philosophizes with a humility that shows both his maturity and steady focus. When God opens that door for me, I will know that it is my time, he readily states. Until then, Ill just keep on making the music I love to make. So stay tuned, the name T.w.o.-G. is going to be one youll be mentioning a lot in the very near future.
