This is fucking amazing! The instrumentals in this song are some of the best I've heard in metal in years. It makes me think, I never understood how metal music never connected huge with the hoods in the USA. Rap infiltrated the ghettos and brainwashed the populace with terrible messages. Obviously not all rap is terrible, most of it is pop manufactured garbage, but there is some decent talented rap out there, but imagine taking the musical genius of African Americans from the hoods of the USA and turning that into metal music. It would be such a positive outlet, but also I think a real untapped potential and new sound could enter the metal genre. I would love to hear it, spread the word on metal music. Make America Metal Again!
