Next to a smooth production, I am huge on crisp, original lyrics and Henry Blanco comes to the mic with such a clean, brilliant approach, it truly is like watching magic in the making.

The Queen's rapper, clearly Nas influenced, has a throwback sound but gives it a personal modern spin. What I find the most refreshing about this track, aside from the cognac, is the stunning wordplay: "Ask Russell Simmons whose running this shit, / Queens bound motherfucker with a blunt on my lip, / I'm the red eye Jedi Bet I'm too high to get up, / infiltrate the place if they don't let us, / Got the funk for your mind fuck with your mind,/ bump ya head back till you fuck with your spine".

Blanco's music takes his audience places--the condensation of the glass, voices crackling in on the car radio, making your way to the corner store. Let Henry Blanco pour you some fresh rhymes.
