Proklaim - REASON 2 BELIEVE

REASON 2 BELIEVE - Proklaim (Hiphop) It’s a double feature this week with our fifth and sixth tracks from Proklaim this year alone, starting with “REASON 2 BELIEVE.” He’s giving a lot of Kendrick Lamar again in the first verse of this one, with a flow that actually reminds us a bit of some of the tracks on Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The chorus is silky smooth with a Bones Thugs ‘N Harmony kind of layering. Reminding us of the versatility we’ve come to expect from Proklaim, the second verse switches up the flow entirely—ike, you’d think it was a J Cole feature. It’s an understated production, a mellow midtempo vibe with a touch of somberness to it, though still going down nice and smooth. This track is honey for the ears.

Best Lyric: “We beat life ‘til it’s not fair.”
