REKS "Jump Shots" (prod. by Buckwild; cuts by Statik Selektah)

The upcoming REKS album, 'The Greatest X', (pronounced The Greatest Unknown) is dropping September 9th, 2016 on Brick Records.
"Jump Shots" is a song that articulates in depth the idea made famous by Biggie Smalls, "either your slingin' crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot." Over an infectious head-nodder from Buckwild, assisted by a flawless cuts from Statik Selektah, REKS describes the limited options available to ghetto youth and the parallels between b-ball and hip hop. A die-hard Boston Celtics fan, REKS states, "I actually grew up idolizing the Bad Boys Isiah Thomas on the ball court. His grittiness and fearlessness was admirable."
"Jump Shots" comes just in time as The NBA Finals are now in full swing. REKS won't root for any team other than his beloved Celtics these days, but he is enjoying the shootout between Steph Curry and Lebron James. "Jump Shots" is the fourth release from 'The Greatest X'.
The video was directed by The Sultan

[@dustyatomz559]

This track is butter. I read some of these comments. People saying "I miss this kind of rap" or real Hip-hop making a comeback". Where the fuck yall been? True Hip-Hop never left. If you listening to the radio bullshit then that explains it.

[@KaTeR_MCC]

that beat HAAARD AF! + REKS flow?!?!? what else can you ask for???

[@BoChosen]

Incredible. Big supporter of Reks over the years. He's always dropping official joints and has firmly cemented himself in the history books. Buckwild is a legend. Statik is always a good look. Respect...

[@kaljohan3787]

Reks so underrated, this is fire

[@Anx1o]

Buckwild always in his prime. Statik is at the top of his game right now, and seeing this video and what a killa Reks is on da mic makes me believe hip-hop is making a comeback! bout 2 shut down all that wack ass shit!

[@jacobkmd]

This beat is so dope! Buckwild bringin back the 90s grimy sound!! Real hip hop

[@MOTMAN]

BIG UPS FROM UK!!

[@TheHumanBallsack]

Yo Buckwild definately dropped a modern day classic production after all these years... I didn't expect even Buck the great to be capable/willing to use that 90s Boom Bap production technique like this, with the spacey sound effects like he used on Kool Keith's '95 track back in the day, but apparently legendary producers are capable of crafting traditional productions if they feel so inclined. Keep it up Buck. We need Nineteen Ninety Now part 3!

[@Jason_in_Brazil]

Instant classic...

[@Fatfuck503]

Left handed turn around fade away is my wicked jumpshot.

[@mattymatt6970]

Damn. reks flow is so ill. especially considering how many artists there are now that put so much effort into how their voice sounds and what seems like none into their lyrics. think first time i heard reks was in '01. guys been around for a long time.
