Track of the Week: Hip Hop's Home, "What U Sayin' to me"


On the eve of the official release of M.Ez's Hip Hop's Home demo c.d., It's my priviledge to provide you with the final track review. It wasn't easy to pick the last one, as I had to forgo my personal fave "Heavy Burden" as well as other sure fires, including "Everyday I Grind", "Fly Away", and "Walk in" to name a few; however, this one track has everything that a great song requires, such as a superb flow, a distinct message, and unique versatility. M.Ez skillfully corresponds feeling with the tempo and the overall flow of the song. He begins calm, relating to the pleasure on emceeing, as he spits, "but when I step on stage, I d'd'do hear a cheer"; but not before long, the flow changes as he speeds up, when reflecting on being compared to other established hip hop artists, revealing fury. The lyrical change of pace, not only highlights varying emotions, but it allows the track to be deeper in meaning. This type of effective way of creating music propels the whole genre to greater heights, which is exactly why hip hop is home and it's gearing up for some spring cleaning!
