He has a lazy flow, but that makes it easier to listen closely as he tells you a story about life in the school of hard knocks. A lesson in the school of hard knocks comes disguised in the devastating news of Stack Bundles' death. On "Tell It Like It Is," Ransom unleashes all his vulnerability onto the track, reminiscing over the friendship and telling it like it is after his passing. Admitting the truths behind his mourning makes this track strong and heartfelt. It's a shame that such a good song is birthed under such circumstances.
He recuperates for the sake of the music on "Dinna Time," where Ransom's voice is louder, clearer and his flow has better stamina. Still, the song keeps reality in check as he raps about poor living conditions and aspirations of the so-called American Dream.
Ransom captures the true East coast music style via dramatic beats, visual lyrics and his own personal swag.
