FinaL OutlaW, one of our “5 Reasons Why New York Hip Hop Doesn’t Suck,” unleashes “You Will Betray Me,” another fiery lyrical assault, this time taking aim at snake types slithering in the grass of the rap industry. Over crispy production crafted by long time Canibus tour DJ, DJ Puerto Roc, FinaL OutlaW delivers his thoughts from a perspective seldom heard, and seldom this well articulated.
The last time we heard from FinaL OutlaW was on the Kon-produced collaboration between him, Premonition, Silent Knight and DJ M-Tri, “Kingship,” but FinaL OutlaW also made recent noise by competing at the legendary Apollo Theater, taking 2nd place and earning the chance to move on to the next round. Knowing how the traditionally finicky Apollo crowd can be, this comes as a relief for those who recognize FinaL OutlaW’s talent and passion for his craft.
Round two at the Apollo is February 23, and regardless of the final outcome, we continue to expect big things from FinaL OutlaW. Check “You Will Betray Me” below.
