Shakespeare |
|
Brooklyn has always produced a certain magic. Just when
the magic seems to have passed away, retired, or gotten
jerked
by Don King, enters Franklin Rossman aka.
Shakespeare, and all the 24-year old wants
is for the world to "feel" him.

the lowdown |
Brooklyn has a long standing tradition for greatness,
whether it was the Brooklyn Dodgers, Mike Tyson, a Spike
Lee joint or the legacy of Christopher Wallace.
"When writing a song, I try to find ideas that
everyone experiences at some level", answers Shake
when asked about his creative process. "Everybody
experiences death, love, hate, and betrayal", he
adds. Not only is Shakespeare willing to relate to
his audience, he is also willing to show them a
vulnerability within himself that most rappers would
never own up to.
On the Moss produced track Shake challenges the
notion that all rappers must fit into a
cookie-cutter, fitted-cap mold, while using a
melodic flow with more substance than Boston George;
which is why Complex Magazine chose to run the verse
in its inaugural "Dial-A-Freestyle" section

the sound |
 Most "industry" heads will tell you, any rapper with
dreams of being successful needs a hometown hit, but
in order to obtain success on a national scale, a
rapper needs to think beyond his block.
That's quite a dilemma right? Not for Shake.
While the A-Side to his single ("Hater") will have
folks from East to West clowning rap's current
roster, the B-Side ("Kings County") gives Brooklyn
an anthem that they haven't seen since Smif n
Wesson's "Bucktown".

 Most of today's new jacks claim to be the next Hov or the
next Pac, but allow yourself be introduced to the first
Shakespeare
On his lead single, "Hater", Shakespeare admits to
being a player hater, showing distaste for
everything from trucker caps, to "rappers with a
clothing line".
