    I never heard of this rapper before but today on the new iTunes app I kept searching for some more good music and once and a while I found a good song but once i got to this rapper I couldn't stop adding his songs.... Each song was different from all the other rappers, it makes me wish I knew of this rapper a long time ago! This guy deserves to be known way more than he is now... Keep them coming. Honestly this is better than all the other songs out there it surprises me your not more famous but you'll get there!

    Locksmith been in my top 5 in the industry since the early Frontline days. And he's grown a lot as an artist since then. Always had bars on bars, but his content has gotten consistently better, and he's doing it his way even though he probably could've dumbed it down and blown up a long time ago. Much respect Lock.

    • @justinbergendahl
      @justinbergendahl Před 9 lety +1

      Them frontline days with E-A-SKEE! What is it! Ha, those were the days! Lock always had bars like you said. I remember that battle he clearly won but because he was a new bay rapper, they dissed him. No respect. That just fueled the flames. Now look. I haven't been able to listen to a rap album in its entirety without being disgusted in years. I can listen to this album start to finish without skipping a track.

    Just had the thought, "Locksmith is just as good technically, if not better than a lot of "successful" rappers." This thought was based on material I heard 2 years ago. Went to see what you have been up to and saw that you have been creating music that resonates at least five times as much more as the last with me. Your music is appreciated man.
