Virtuoso - In My Lives

Its been a while since ive heard anything from virtuoso. he's always been a big part of hip-hop if it wasnt for big bang records acts like jus allah may have never been heard. virtusou returns after a almost 6 year hiatus since his last album with last years the final conflict. whats refreshing about this is he deffintly hasnt fell off at all. "im just a channel tuned into a piano" vividness like this shows he dont let any get to him and zones out to his music a trate alot of rappers nowadays lack, since they let beef and money get the best of them and loose control of whats truely important, the music. This track is deep also complex witch is somethign you never see in a track thats purpose is a farewell track to the lost. "do your best not to eat your own soul distressed" he speaks on real subjects on this song, 911, katrina, the onyl thign bad is he fits to much stuff in one track but besides this this is deffintly the escense of true hiphop
