OneWerd feat. Myka 9

Like several other rappers turned educators, OneWerd, is keeping the it hella live for the elbow patch set. I do challenge you to find another rapper in the teach rap genre that packs more rhymes per syllable. OneWerd also consistently runs a monthy hip hop gathering in the SOMA District in San Francisco called, Builders, throws one-off shows with underground heroes, releases projects that garner local acclaim from the weeklies, and drops singles with microphone magicians like Myka 9. And… and… AND this mother fucker holds down a real career. 

He’s truly one of the good guys.

And his whole existence makes me chortle heartily at the host of 30+ asshole rappers bitterly complaining about how the XXL Freshman got put on while asking who got the job hookup between homophobic Facebook beef and making fun of Pokemon Go.

OneWerd's new song, “Your Own Monster” is just that. A monster. Its dub-step inspired beat can suck a fat spiral duck dick, but OneWerd and Myka go together like Australians and Vegemite and it made me forgive the Skrillex. Myka’s chorus is effected, sung and inspired. Then OneWerd’s verse grabs you by the crown chakra and wiggles your head around. Next comes Microphone Myk’s verse! Fucking Myka 9 makes everything seems so easy. Dude is like being naked in silk sheets on a breezy rooftop on a perfect spring day. So smoooooov! It probably works as a detriment to him, because he can rap so effortlessly while others force. The whole thing becomes that brainy Gremlin from the Gremlins sequel. Intellectual, but deadly. 

Keep up the good work Sir Werd. And if you find yourself in the Bay area, slap dude’s back for me.
