“It’s y’all that by dying, y’all that be losing, y’all be confusing the truth with this music.”
Jon Connor just released the second leak from his forthcoming The People’s Rapper LP. The new project is the second in his Best In The World Series, and he pays homage to Eminem by creating new songs out of Eminem instrumentals. Today we have “The Way I Am”, which is arguably one of Eminem’s best and most important records. Connor flips it very well, focusing on the responsibility he feels when making music and constant barrage of dumb shit that we’re spoon fed as Hip Hop fans. Again, this is why Hip Hop needs Jon Connor right now and why he’s one of my favorite emcees. Grab the new joint below. The People’s Rapper drops April 13th.
