The rapper known
as Centri has released his latest and greatest single, “M.O.M.M.”
(Music On My Mind). The single features Sha Stimuli, Akir, and Dokta
Strange, including back beats mixed by P.R.O. The track is
characterized by an old-school groove, cutting edge mixing and
composition, and some of the best lines and rhymes ever penned for
hip hop. A titan of modern urban poetry, “M.O.M.M.” stands to
prove once and for all that Centri is a powerhouse rapper with
equally talented friends.
This will come as
no surprise at all for longtime fans of Centri, some of whom have
been loyal to his music for decades. His wordplay has always been one
of his greatest assets.
“I’ve been
writing since I was like very young,” he comments. “Back then I
was really surprising people with my rhymes and how I put words
together. Every cipher or show or wherever I rhymed I would get a
very intense reaction from people.”
This particular
sound comes from Centri's phrasing and delivery, and from his knack
for combinations that draw the ear and give the mind something to
chew on.
“I started to
study people’s verses,” he writes candidly, “and for about six
months I stopped writing rhymes and strictly wrote hooks. I dunno. I
felt hooks are a major weak spot amongst up and coming artists, so I
wanted to ensure my hooks were infectious and served a purpose with
every song.”
Having
accomplished this, “M.O.M.M.” and other excellent tracks from
Centri are each works of art, line by line, phrase by phrase. His new
album will be called “The Headless Nobody.” This is an image
created by Centri to represent the contemporary artists most
listeners never see. The record, as usual, deals with themes that
most writers would not touch.
Centri replies,
“It speaks on real topics that you will never get an up-and-coming
artist to discuss unless you speak to him behind the scenes, but not
the kind of thing you would potentially hear in an interview or on a
blog. I’m definitely taking this album places lyrically and
musically into unexplored territory.”
This early,
excellent offering from Centri and friends, “M.O.M.M.,” is a sure
sign that music fans have great things in store for them in the near
future. As a further sign of goodwill, Centri has made the single
available for streaming and download, and the first 200 listeners
will receive the track free of charge.
