Exclusive: Trackademicks "Stop It!" feat. Mistah F.A.B.

Trackademicks - Stop It! feat. Mistah F.A.B. by The Honor Roll

Released by: HNRL Music
Release/catalogue number: HNRL 0001

"Mr Braggadocio, why you rappin' so-so/
You used to a showboat, but nowadays it don't float..."

I'm gassed to drop the next single off of my upcoming album State Of The Arts. This one features my long time homie and collaborator Mistah F.A.B. I can honestly say I don't know anyone who loves the grind more that this dude, so it was only right to get him on the track to give his perspective about it.



Songs like this and "Fool On The Hill" are really what State Of The Arts is all about.

Artistic Integrity.
Authenticity.
Diligence.
Honor.

Download FREE now on Bandcamp.

EXCLUSIVE: Trackademicks- "Fool On The Hill" featuring Phonte

Trackademicks - Fool On The Hill feat. Phonte by The Honor Roll
Released by: HNRL Music
Release/catalogue number: HNRL1226

Its the end of summer next week.
Just about time to break out that fall wardrobe.
Optimum time for some new HNRL music in your life.

Class is in Session!!!

It is my pleasure to present the first single off of my debut full length offering "State Of The Arts", dropping this Fall. This is also the debut release (HNRL 1226) for HNRL Music's single series.

<a href="http://hnrl.bandcamp.com/track/fool-on-the-hill-feat-phonte">Fool On The Hill feat. Phonte by HNRL</a>

I feel like this song is a good one to start with.

Perseverance.
Consistency.
Confidence.
Fulfillment.
Dedication.
Originality.
Courage.
Humility.
Purpose.
Heart.

Anything that's worth doing, worth obtaining, uses some combination of these. And along the way, sometimes people stand in the way, deliberately or otherwise. For them, all I have to give is a blank stare. Like a Fool On The Hill.
