Qari - Revenge (Prod. Cangeloso & Mulatto Beats)
[iframe id="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/344187952&color=%23ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false"]
One of the most poised MCs in Chicago, Qari is back with his trademark effortless flow on "Revenge". Moving with his usual abstract punchlines Qari weaves through the 808 minefield like a determined solider. His confidence never misses a beat and his synergy with Mulatto Beats remains one of the best MC/Producer tandems in the whole country.
Word has it that Qari is working on his next project, I for one will be waiting patiently to digest the always thoughtful MCs next batch of bars. Until then let "Revenge" tide you over.
"Watch me revenge on these N****s,
but I ain't got shit to prove."
