August Green – Optimistic (Ft. Brandy) (Review & Stream)

August Green? 


August Green consists of the trio: Common, Karriem Riggins and Robert Glasper. Who is Karriem Riggins and Robert Glasper? I have no f–kin’ clue.

This song is nothing less than groovy! Brandy (aka Ray-J’s sister) starts it off, providing us with this powerful hook that will make you think that you have wings by the end of it. She definitely shines the brightest here, something I didn’t see coming.

Common drops perhaps his most aggressive/wisest/dopest verse I’ve heard in legit 3 years! He rides the drum heavy beat flawlessly, reminding us that he’s one of Chi’s hall of famers.

This song screams out organic! I’ll just scan it as non-organic when I’m at the grocery store.

 

OVERALL RATING (5/5)
