Possessing a dynamic creativity that is fueled by his insatiable passion for music and love for Jesus Christ, Christian rapper and songwriter Nathan Jarrelle prides himself on the conscious level of his sound, which takes roots from a cornucopia of his musical luminaries in the hip-hop and gospel worlds. He has quickly been making waves with his unparalleled sound and style as he makes sure to reach the heart of every song he creates and deliver it in a way that will positively impact and resonate with the audience, apart from its usual entertaining traits. Through his emotion-filled vocal performances, Nathan radiates raw emotions over any type of instrumentation; the impact behind his rhymes is what matters most to him.
He has a new emotional anthem dubbed “Know the Boy” that strongly speaks against the ills visited upon people of color like him by rogue police officers. Unless you are new to the planet, you are well aware of the stream of events that have been occurring from time to time that involve police shootings of unarmed black men and women.
Despite the public outcry, international focus, and black solidarity movements, only symptoms of the disease have supposedly been cured but not the disease itself, and in “Know the Boy” Nathan emotionally delves into the quintessence of the matter in a raw, honest, and relatable tone as he tells the plight of the forgotten and ignored black child!
The backing instrumentals create a deeply melodious and expressive hip-hop shade that offers the perfect support for Nathan Jarrelle’s soulful vocals to flourish. Unmistakable with a consistent and noticeable rhythmic element, the beats here have been stupendously produced, and Nathan, in his own wisdom, does justice to them!
The lines “they say they know I’m in the streets but they don’t know the boy” which form part of the memorable hooks, are very deep, and I feel that is where the quintessence of the track’s theme lay. Over-all, this is a deeply relatable anthem and entertaining one at that that deserves massive recognizing due to the sensitive and universal subject at its core.
