Ariael Mori This song goes so hard, on top of that the lyrics go with the ryithum of the beat. There not just lyrics they mean something. I give this a 10 out if 10 this is a must own.

about

"Black Bottom was a predominantly black neighborhood in Detroit, Michigan, that was demolished and replaced with Lafayette Park in the 1960s. The Black Bottom–Paradise Valley area on the city's east side became known for its significant contribution to American music including Blues, Big Band, and Jazz from the 1930s to the 1950s.[1] It was located on Detroit's near East Side bounded by Gratiot Avenue, Brush Street, Vernor Highway, and the Grand Trunk railroad tracks.

I could write an essay on the significance of this song to me given the current social climate & constant renewal existing in my city. But long story short, it's imperative to OWN- property, licenses, businesses- in this city (DETROIT) right now in order to be a factor, to have say (however large or small) in the next evolution of this place we call home. To accrue our own wealth, to improve our surroundings, & to be able to dictate & not be dictated to. OWN/SUPPORT. Me & my brother Blak synced on this almost immediately hopefully visual coming soon....

P.S.
(S/O to my homey J-Gip for putting me up on the young Mike Hurst early on in the game. Dude has grew into an absolute monster on the boards & I'm mad excited to see both what his trajectory is & the variety of heatrock me & him are going to connect on)
