The rapper and producer of hip hop
known as Bryce the Third has released his new full-length album,
“Internal Revenue.” It contains 14 tracks for an approximate
total listening time of 45 minutes. It has been proudly published as
an independent release without the involvement of the corporate music
industry. Clever, relevant, and bringing more rat-a-tat than the
Fourth of July, “Internal Revenue” by Bryce the Third demands hip
hop fans sit up and take notice of this surprise MC out of MI.
Bryce the Third hails from Inkster,
Michigan. He cites as main artistic influences Eminem, the Notorious
B.I.G., Beanie Sigel, Jadakiss, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar,
J.Cole, Andre 3000, Killer Mike, and Kanye West. His own style takes
the solid-state basics of the old-school sound and embellishes them
with contemporary elements for a blend which will appeal to hip hop
fans from every walk.
But perhaps most importantly, Bryce the
Third's songs narrate nonfiction.
Speaking for himself of his influences,
Bryce says, “Just experiences. Things that I've been through
personally or have seen.”
The integral nature of this in his
songs cannot be overstated. He writes music about the conditions in
which people live today, the trials they overcome, and the
tribulations by which they are overcome. Neither are these fantastic
“tales from the ghetto” listeners may find hard to understand.
Bryce talks of difficulty getting out of bed with depression,
constant media noise that one is bred to failure, the white-knuckle
reality that there's only one grim alternative to holding on.
“First and foremost it's quality
music,” writes Bryce the Third, “that's most important. Secondly,
you know, I'm just hoping that people hear 'Internal Revenue' and
learn to be okay with who they are. If the listener hasn't started
the journey of looking in the mirror and accepting that person
looking back, I hope that this tape can be somewhat of a push for
them to start considering these ideas.”
Ultimately, “Internal Revenue” by
Bryce the Third is hip hop which poses the argument plainly
illustrated on its album cover: what's outside might not satisfy, and
what's inside might be neglected.
“There's more to life than the
external sh-t,” Bryce says. “Maybe I can introduce the concept of
an inner drive to someone who doesn't know what that is.”
“Internal Revenue” by Bryce the
Third is available from SoundCloud and over 600 quality digital music

Very early.
