#AtlHiphop Apollon The Don drops westcoast influenced conscious rap song “Breathe”

On your first listen to “Breathe (Ghetto Lullaby)”, by Apollon The Don, you may mistake the lyricist to be a fresh, Californian upstart. The whistling synth playing the back of his production harkens to G-Funk; whilst his paced, yet deliberate flow is reminiscent of the same LA legends that pioneered that style. It will come as a shock to learn that this gifted emcee is actually a native of Atlanta; however, that piece of information makes “Breathe” all the more jaw-dropping. For, it exists so greatly outside of the trap trend that currently grips his environment. From a young rapper emerging from Clayton County (Zone 3), the lyrical depth of his verses and Southern, soulful inflection of his bridges and hooks are a breath of fresh air. Apollon The Don proves on “Breathe” that he is a descendant of the greats who architected this art-form in the Golden Era. He commits his pen to storytelling; narrating the various plights of growing up in the impoverished ghettos of our country. “Breathe (Ghetto Lullaby)” is a record, that merges West Coast production, with deep, conscious lyricism and a soul-stirring, Southern harmony. If you have been searching for a fresh beacon of Hip-Hop hope to shine out of Atlanta, Apollon The Don is the answer. And he is a radiant one, at that.

He previews the sound with two singles, “Different Now” and “Duality (Intro)”. Both records feature guttural, “Drill”-esque production, contrasted by honest, reflective bars. Sometimes seasoned with autotune, C-ZAR dives into the “Duality” of his lifestyle, making certain to live room for the streets, as well as himself, in his lyricism. True to an ancient, Chicago philosophy, the rapper is aiming for Growth & Development; and “DUALITY EP” is his solemn pledge. If you can connect with the tales of a man stuck between right and wrong, “Different Now” and “Duality (Intro)” are perfect for you.

3Mind Blight releases powerful hiphop anthem “Make This Right”

“So many times I would try to make this right, make this right!” This may be just the banger to put Oklahoma on the map. A harsh, Tulsa aggression is embedded in both the production and delivery of “Make This Right”; with the city’s own, 3mind Blight, at its devilish helm. Ominous strings, carried by dark brass progressions and gliding 808s create the backbone of this record. Proceeded by the drums, “Make This Right” summons a trap bounce of its own, fit for bumping throughout the Tusla streets. With a beat like this, 3Mind Blight could never resist slaughtering it. He hops onto it in a fever of distorted, menacing voices; switching his flow and dark delivery with every verse he lays. 3Mind Blight’s potential as a lyricist and emcee altogether is unquestionably proven on “Make This Right”. Not only has he elevated his prospect as an artist; but he has likewise given his home of Tusla, Oklahoma a banger to embrace.
