Unseen
By
MC Juice
Unseen is the second release by MC Juice on the Nobody Buys
Records label. Production comes from the Bankrupt Europeans and cuts from the
one and only DJ Grazzhoppa.
Nobody Buys Records (NBR) was formed in by the Bankrupt
Europeans back in 2012. This followed eight years of dealing with Industry rule
#4080 and signing deals with certain labels from NY and Boston. Once they had
the home for their recordings everything kicked off with the Fast Rap EP from
Phill Most Chill and releases from AG, MC Rise, PMC, and Craig G were to
follow. After a short hiatus between 2015 and 2019 the Bankrupt Europeans
returned with the cut n paste anthem ‘Class Dismissed’ which featured scratches
from DJ Muzzell and a verse from PMC. Alongside all this the Bankrupt Europeans have a host of production credits to their name including RA The Rugged Man, Chubb Rock, Dooley-O and Dizzy Dustin alongside those already mentioned.
It was in 2020 that the Bankrupt Europeans would finally
release their first collaboration with MC Juice on NBR, the highly acclaimed
‘Where You Go’ 45. It was due to the success of this release that 2021 would see
NBR drop Unseen…
If anyone is not familiar with MC Juice, then here is very
short introduction for you. Out of Chicago, MC Juice is hailed as the GOAT of
the freestyle and battle circuits. He is the MC who straight up won a freestyle
battle with another freestyle GOAT, Eminem. Now dipping his mic into dropping
records he is showing that he cannot only rock rhythms and only rock rhymes
but, also rock records…
Unseen hits hard with mix of bass, keyboards and pounding
drums, giving this a heavy vibe that lives in the shadows of Hip Hop. This dark
and sinister world that is created by the Bankrupt Europeans is the perfect
place to be inhabited by MC Juice. On the streets of this shadowy world MC
Juice drops some intense vocals that are unapologetic and seep into your
physical body and then reach beyond into your soul. He demonstrates what he
does best, taking out emcees and getting to the top of the pile and once there
he can just walk away, still at the top, because he has done it all from
shadows leaving those emcees in his wake wondering what happened as their
opponent came and went in style but, still Unseen.
This track has that air of cruising in your car at midnight
on the dark empty streets, the volume up loud but, not necessarily to attract
attention. Here you might feel you’re being toyed with, you feel the vibe and
love the music but, all around you is the devastation perpetrated once more by
the one who goes Unseen.
Definitely one to get the pulse pounding Unseen is one of
those track you can play anytime but, suits the end of the evening when you
want something heavy to wind down to, or when your out in your car and what
people to know what you’re listening to. The Bankrupt Europeans create the
perfect backdrop that sets you up for MC Juice to take you down and then, just
when you thought everything was over DJ Grazzhoppa steps in and finishes you
off with some razor-sharp cuts.
Unseen is one for your collection, if there are any physical
copies left. If not, then you will just have to settle to being ghosted by the
etheric digital version…
On that note, a quick shout and respect to DJ Snafu for
sending this over to me, and I’m out…
Peace,
Steve
