In case you haven’t heard, there is a new rap general in town who is rechristened as Fooly23; a West Palm Beach, Florida hip-hop staple who isn’t afraid to confront real-life issues and document them into rap masterpieces with near mystic appeal! This 23-year-old rap whizz is swiftly making a name for himself in the gargantuan rap world and you better notice for the next time you hear his name, he will be performing at a sold-out Madison Square Garden! He has been influenced musically by the likes of T-Pain, Melly, Skooly and Mo3 and mirrors his own artistry to the accomplishment of such legends of the game!
Taking up his place as a lyrical stunner; Fooly23 is back again with a new album dubbed “High Jinx” – a 5 track compilation that gives an ode to his own life, relationships, heartbreaks, identity crisis, and sour friendships. This album is deeply relatable to anyone no matter the type of genre you subscribe to. Everything is melodically documented and his words; like a vessel of emotions pour rhythmically and console the dying spirit of a human heart!
There is a natural mystic blowing in the rap air as the track “Mystic” creates bliss and an endless loop of emotions with the way the hurt is felt through his auto-tuned vocals. Coming out as clear as the light of day, this certified tune draped in that southern culture is perfect when you are feeling like everything you are giving is not being reciprocated- that love, friendship, and even loyalty. If that is the case, pump up the volume and let Fooly23 lyrically speak on your behalf!
“Home” is alluring and compelling when it comes to the cadence and the theme is just perfect for this kind of groove; the fake promises, the lies which you can see through the eyes- that victim mentality and pretense, everything is confronted in rap lemonade fashion as Fooly23 takes on these emotions head on over the lush hip-hop beats decorated with the punchy drums and some resounding synths!
“G.U.O.G” is that type of track that resonates deeply with a listener’s emotions. The cinematic piano intro is followed by the percussive hip-hop beats that are soon styled in vocal incursion as Fooly23 delves deep into his lyrical arsenal and exposes fake love for what it is; the victim play, the lies, and the pretense. This is for the ones who take others’ feelings for a joy ride, awakening others’ feelings without the intention of being ready to offer that unconditional love- such cowards!
There is power, vulnerability, relatability, and stun in the tunes, “Overcame” and “Change Your Ways” – all performed with that insatiable passion for passing on the message, and what makes everything standout is actually the magnitude of emotions present in his voice- it is unmatched and absolutely impactful!
