▓░░█ ░ RELEASE NOTES ▄▄▄▄▀▀▀
░ █ ▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀ █
█ With the West Coast underground scene bubbling, █
█ there are many artists who think they are ready █
█ to blow through and provide what many feel is █
█ necessary, a solid album. With the debut release █
█ of Los Angeles native Scan's album, appropriately █
█ titled "The Passion," fans will be happy to find █
█ a listening experience that touches on the █
█ complexity of a young man's struggles in life, █
█ told through vivid stories with the pen and █
█ passionate, hungry hip-hop. █
█ █
█ At a time when rap is saturated with mixtapes, █
█ stale subject matter and a lack of originality, a █
█ listen to the first 3 minutes of "The Passion" █
█ give you a raw welcome into Scan's world. █
█ █
█ "Now what this is is the ending of a █
█ struggle/Hope I called the right play it's the █
█ ending of the huddle/ Only got one chance and █
█ it's a long run/Here I go, fourth and goal from █
█ my own 1/" █
█ █
█ Using what seems to be an endless supply of █
█ clever and descriptive metaphors, Scan let's his █
█ lyrics unfold an amazing introduction towards █
█ what to expect from the album. Less than halfway █
█ into the first track one thing becomes very █
█ clear, Scan's talent gives you a front row seat █
█ into his mind as he readies himself for a push at █
█ success in music and life, all the while taking █
█ you along for every step. █
█ █
█ Followed by the 'ready for anything' attitude of █
█ the second song, "Bring Ya Best," Scan makes it █
█ clear that he is prepared to do whatever it takes █
█ to win. His abilities to smoothly switch to more █
█ serious topics are perfectly presented on the █
█ tracks "I Don't Care" and "Thinking Under The █
█ Influence," the latter which finds him telling an █
█ honest and heartfelt tale of a man's struggles █
█ with alcohol and the law. █
█ █
█ "I might be smiling but I'm walking with █
█ doubts/And it's just a matter of time before my █
█ walking gives out/ ...Tilt the bottle and not a █
█ drop coming out/I'm still sober, treating the █
█ liquor like soda-I can't run from death cause █
█ everyday the shit gets closer/" █
█ █
█ The pain and sincerity in his voice as he raps █
█ make each verse leave a strong impact, and the █
█ inclusion of real life issues offers his audience █
█ something many may be able to relate to. The █
█ album also steps in the direction of more █
█ hardcore material, most noticeably on tracks like █
█ the potential LA anthem "Gangsta Gangsta," where █
█ Scan spits a cocky street style over a grimy beat █
█ and hook. █
█ █
█ "You ain't gotta like me-Cause you ain't got it █
█ like me/That's why you feel like you gotta fight █
█ me/" █
█ █
█ The songs "Something To Say" and "The Ugly Truth" █
█ further show why Scan has every right to feel so █
█ highly of his skills, as he drops lines on "The █
█ Ugly Truth" that will have you rewinding to catch █
█ everything he says. █
█ █
█ "You hide behind your bars thinking that you █
█ won't be accepted/But if you real then a fraud is █
█ easily detected/ This is food for thought man eat █
█ your breakfast/I just add metaphors and █
█ punchlines to season the message/ ...You don't █
█ even know who you are nigga you guessing/That's █
█ another niggas life that you identity thefting" █
█ █
█ Featuring tracks also dealing with issues like █
█ relationships and conquests over girls, as well █
█ as the extremely catchy and party friendly single █
█ "Victory", which is rapped over the sounds of the █
█ USC marching band, plus boasting almost all █
█ original production, the album is sure to please █
█ fans of all types. █
█ █
█ After a few spins, any true fan of hip-hop, █
█ regardless of the region they prefer, should be █
█ able to appreciate and enjoy this album, as it █
█ showcases a young and determined artist pouring █
█ himself into a record with a top-notch skill █
█ level at his disposal. With little to no bumps on █
█ the ride, chances are you will find yourself █
█ ready to start the whole thing over again once █
█ it's done. I guarantee you'll find a new reason █
█ to each time. █
█ █
