Bay Area Rapper LaRussell Slides In Debut L.A. Leakers Freestyle

Directed, filmed & edited by ‪@atribecalledhiphop‬
Repping for the Bay Area, LaRussell stepped into the Power 106 studios for his debut L.A. Leakers freestyle appearance.
Carrying a specific confidence and humility, the Cali emcee wasted no time delivering a "different" type of energy for the latest freestyle installment 132. While LaRussell has his entire crew pack out the LIFTOFF studio, Justin Credible and DJ Sourmilk let the rapper gas his signature sound and spit bars that boast his skill.
Rapping over an original instrumental, LaRussell spits, "I'm just getting warmed up, had to start the car on n****s / Bench pressing, had to lift the bar on n****s / 400 years depressed, it was hard on n****s / "Black Jack," couldn't wait to flip the card on n****s"

This was a special one to film. LaRussell brought his whole crew along with him so we had a audience that was reacting to each bar. Super fun and contagious energy was in the room. Salute LaRussell! I hope you guys enjoy 🏆

@@JohnDoe-lq1fl I don't think it will since he has nothing in common with the "industry" at this point so there's no need to try to fit in when he can obviously stand out on his own platform and make them cater to his movement respectfully 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾✊🏾💯

My favorite part about this video is at 1:57 because if you look in the reflection of the banner, you see Justin reach his hand out which plays perfectly into the bar.
