I don’t know what this says about the music scene: Little Vic’s one minute freestyles make most other artist’s music look paltry comparison. So either Vic is a microphone savant or the industry is soft right now. I think it’s a combo deal. DJ Supa Dave is on the boards.
I absolutely love what Little Vic did with this beat! That guitar work is just awesome. I always think of Vic as that superlative rhymer and tend to forget that he has a knack for some dope production. This song is rapid fire and has Vic spitting flames once again. I am not sure if this is something that will surface on his album. If I know Vic, probably not. He’s prone for just dropping random sickness.
Little Vic utilizes and adapts a DJ Insite reference that was once to be further developed for a production for Nature (who has since chosen a different gem) . Vic concocted a couple of verses and what we have as a result is the collaborative effort, All Work & No Play. We all know Vic’s prowess for dropping hot wittiness (yes, I said that and don’t regret it one bit). Enjoy how this track fell into place.
Is this the first offering off of Little Vic’s album, Widowmaker? Why , yes. Yes it is! It’s exciting because I have been waiting for years for Little Vic to put out something official and here it comes. Let Alone is a somber joint that is also produced by Vic. He’s got the keys moving as he discusses the caveats of relationships in there different stages. Truly an artist for the people with his conversational style. Enjoy!
The first thing I want to say is that you don’t see chemistry on the microphone like this anymore. Little Vic and Peter Leo spit these bars like they were on some EPMD shit. It’s incredible the way they trade these bars. I can’t compare it with anything recently. The second thing I want to note is the dope beat that Undefined crafts here, and his album, Certified A-Side, is chocked full of rhythms like this. You need to check it out! Lastly, the video is extremely well done. The director really did a great job of accentuating the team work in the track. Officially one of my favorite joints this year.
Little Vic drops a new/old gem for the public’s consumption. Old because he made it a while ago, new because you have yet to hear it. He’s dropping the biblical, the historical, and the mythological on this joint.
You can’t put it past me to up a rough mix of a cut that has Little Vic on it. Basically his rough cuts are greater than 90% of these mastered album songs the industry is perpetrating these days.
Meanwhile…we wait…patiently for his new album for lack of choices…
This music business is serious and these are some serious individuals on this track! This is some of that ‘gottdamn’ type music because you will be saying that a lot during the four minutes this track runs. Typ iLL, Peter Leo, and Little Vic showcase over this Velotz beat. This track has head nodder written all over it. (Oh and Vic’s verse if proof in point that he is one of the nicest in the game. Go ahead and tell me different!) Be warned…

This is a yearly musical synopsis from the fam over at Creative Juices. The crew over their has been one of my favorites for three of four years now. They are always cranking out dope jams, and this mixtape gives you a taste of more than just a few of them. Again, this is a great way to get you caught up with the crew or get put on as a fan. Obviously this is mixed by the skilled talent that is DJ Connect. They have loads of great music in store for 2013 as well. Enjoy!
To all the blogs that do not post the music of Little Vic…here’s a professional middle finger cast in your direction. How can you not post this man’s music? Damn it. Excuse the rant but Little Vic doesn’t get half the credit he deserves for being a gifted lyricist. And it’s on tracks like these, where he just flexes his gift, that you can really see the sun shine so to speak. Supa Dave is on the boards…
Can’t wait for the album…
