With so much of Hip-Hop now concerned with genre mash-ups and pushing the creative envelope yadda yadda, it’s refreshing to hear someone that can just f*cking rap. Openmic is that guy. Mic waxes poetic about being the fly over A$AP Rocky’s “Pretty Flacko” beat. Rocky has been the Hip-Hop golden (toothed) child for a while now so it’s pretty ballsy to hop on one of his beats and the Nashvillian takes on the challenge in stride.

In addition to Mic’s lyrical ability comes his penchant for hopping in his DeVille and riding the beat is instantly recognizable. He totally owns every beat drop and bass line shift, switching up his cadence and flow to match. But all of that is just fancy talk for the most important indelible fact about Openmic: he can just f*cking rap.

If you haven’t already, now would be a good time to get up to speed on Openmic’s MOLOTOV, a joint project with Ducko McFli. Stream and/or download it by clicking here.
