Murdakkh - The Warm Up (Album Review)

Most of my reader's know me for my racy or outrageous posts. Today I am going to take a different approach and review a HipHop Album. This is not normally something that I do but since the artist is a friend I have no problem elevating his craft. At first, I was really apprehensive about listening. I thought, what if I don't like it? What will I tell him? I am extremely happy I decided to spend my money on this Album. It was money well spent and this is an honor for me.

*Disclaimer* Anything written will be the absolute truth. I refuse to promote anything I do not believe in. I do not want anyone to think because he is my friend that I will be biased. So here goes nothing:

Murdakkh is an up and coming artist from New Jersey who is originally from the Bronx. Murdakkh is a Marine Corps Veteran who spits rhymes like he shots a weapon. He hits the target every time. I have known him since middle school. In all honesty, sitting next to him for almost 3 years I would have never thought I would be writing a review on one of his albums.

"The Warm Up" - The title does not lie. I feel like this album will be the first of many successful albums from Murdakkh. By the title alone he is letting us know that he is just getting started. This 9 track album provides hope that HipHop lives. The album is within the realm of Lupe Fiasco and Common. Slept on, Slept on, Slept on! Not only are Murdakkh's flows hitting but all of the featuring artists shine through like stars. In my opinion there are no features! All of the artists are equal partners of greatness. The artists include P.O, Luey P. Newton, Le Double NY, JG The Vision, Red Cup Society, Butler, Twin, and Sosa. "The Warm Up" will definitely stream in my car.

 Track #3 "Flo Sick" ft Le Double NY & JGTheVision is by far one of my favorite tracks on the album. To be honestly speaking, the more I listen to the album the more all of the tracks become my favorite tracks. All of the artists on this track have a distinctive style of rhyming, accompanied by the beat, this track provides a whole lot of variety and talent.
