divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”Hey Y’all… I hope today’s feature meets you well. If not, sit back and enjoy some good music, hopefully we’ll put you in a better mood…/div/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdivdiv style=”text-align: justify;”This feature is on emerging UK-based Nigerian rapper Chyn, real name Cheyenne Hamilton Labesa who’s currently based out in Scotland studying at the University of Aberdeen. He’snbsp;one of the emerging artists I’ve been following for a very long time now and I really should have done this feature a while ago…nbsp;If I had to describe Chyn as an artist, I’d say he was essentially a 90’s rapper infused with some much needed 21st century musicality. He loves laid back beats, and is not a fan of bait lyrics. I like to refer to him as a ‘Ghost Rapper’, why? Because he is one of those dudes that you literally have to dig out. I’d say he is more slept on than underrated./div/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdivdiv style=”text-align: justify;”Anyway, lets cut right to the chase, the tracks you are about to listen to are something of a prelude or preview to Chyn’s forthcoming mixtape titled ‘The Epidemic’. ‘The Epidemic’ is the type of Hip-Hop mixtape that will definitely grow on you and I know because I’ve heard most of the tracks on it. If you are a fan of Poppy/Dance-Hop, you might want to turn away NOW!!/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //div/divdiv style=”text-align: center;”a href=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rPPGj3IU9Xo/TUV4v_2zSGI/AAAAAAAAAEY/Js_hw_DKHM4/s1600/gidilounge.jpg”img alt=”” border=”0″ id=”BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5567989280303958114″ src=”http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rPPGj3IU9Xo/TUV4v_2zSGI/AAAAAAAAAEY/Js_hw_DKHM4/s400/gidilounge.jpg” style=”cursor: hand; height: 400px; width: 340px;” //a/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdivdiv style=”text-align: justify;”This first track is called ‘Good Times’. This song is a musical description of a good ol’ University house party (trust me I know) and there’s no solid reason for sharing this one other than the fact that I love it and I’m hoping you will too. It’s the type of ‘feel good’ song that slides perfectly into that ‘Friday Night’, ‘Weekend’ or ‘Party’ playlist plus this also works for when you just wanna relax and ‘jam’… Chyn delivers with a smooth flow, witty wordplay and lyrics that make the song totally relatable and enjoyable. Just don’t be misled by the ‘funness’ of the song because you’ll miss some of the interesting metaphors Chyn let’s loose on this one…/div/divdiv style=”text-align: center;”blockquoteibspan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”color: #a64d79; font-size: xx-small;””Different girls, from different countries, G8 Summit”/span/b/i/blockquotediv style=”text-align: justify;”object height=”81″ width=”100%”param name=”movie” value=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9551885″param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”embed allowscriptaccess=”always” height=”81″ src=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9551885″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”100%”/embed /object/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //div/divdiv style=”text-align: left;”div style=”text-align: justify;”This next track is called ‘I Want My Jenny Back’ and it comes with that very 90’s Ramp;B/Hip-Hop vibe, it’d have been perfect if an Ramp;B vocalist was on the hook as you can just hear the potential in the vocal adlibs. On this song, Chyn deliversnbsp;exquisitelynbsp;with the narratives on this classic tale of wanting the “ex” back (you know that one girl that had you sprung from the start and then broke your heart?) and it’s not even near one of the best that Chyn has to offer. ‘The Epidemic’ mixtape is full of relatable real life music like this, none of that “inception” music around here I can assure you.

That bassline reminds me of 50cent’s ‘Candy Shop’ so you already know this one is that head-bopping club banger! You may not be Chyn’s biggest fan but you gotta admit that the dude is sick with it. Listen to ‘Picture status’./divblockquote style=”text-align: center;”bispan class=”Apple-style-span” style=”color: #a64d79; font-size: xx-small;””I get High like notes/i flow like boats/ i do some dance moves, I break fast like oats”/span/i/b/blockquote/divdivdiv style=”text-align: justify;”object height=”81″ width=”100%”param name=”movie” value=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9830325″param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”embed allowscriptaccess=”always” height=”81″ src=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9830325″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”100%”/embed /object/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”‘N.A.H’ stands for “No Autograph Or Hugs” and ever since I heard this tune, that’s exactly how I’ve been feeling. This song is filled with dope braggadocio, smart punchlines and metaphors, excellent delivery and a brilliant wordplay over some banging beats… Just some of the things you can expect from Chyn as you get plugged into his music! For some reason, this tune reminds me of 50cent; I like the way he lays rap-style vocals on the chorus and still bosses the track from start to finish. You should definitely get familiar with ‘N.A.H’…/div/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”object height=”81″ width=”100%”param name=”movie” value=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9551938″param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”embed allowscriptaccess=”always” height=”81″ src=”http://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F9551938″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”100%”/embed /object/divbr /div style=”text-align: justify;”Well, that’s all we have time for today but I hope you’ve enjoyed the music… I’m really tipping Chyn to be a success storynbsp;on the African Hip-Hop landscape and when ‘The Epidemic’ comes out, we’ll be sure to alert you to it but before it does, you can stay close tonbsp;a href=”http://twitter.com/#!/ChynOfficial”Chyn/anbsp;via his Twitter to get the gist on all the latest…/divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”br //divdiv style=”text-align: justify;”Keep Tabs on Chyn:nbsp;a href=”http://www.youtube.com/TheCrazyandroid”Youtube /a// a href=”http://twitter.com/ChynOfficial”Twitter /abr /br /Until the Next Time…br /br /Fhanthom/div
