Ro Ransom – Let’s Try This Again

Looks like Ro Ransom (formerly Nero) is finally back with no plans on slowing down. To kick things off he drops bars over a classic Timbaland beat and really tears through the whole record. Ransomnia coming soon, and ours truly, Marcè Reazon, was the engineer on the project.

It’s Friday. Time to go crazy.

It will be a busy weekend at SwingShift East as Mike Waxx heads to the studio to set fourth movements in the finalization process of Ro Ransom‘s Ransomnia mixtape, and continue to work on Marcè Reazon’s – A View to Kill. No drop date yet for AV2K, but is set to drop sometime in the near future. Oh yeah, and we will also be busy watching the Giants win the Superbowl. WOOT!

You can also download the snippet for free by clicking on the photo below.

Peter Parker Live: Critique by Rachel Harper

“Peter Parker is a phenomenal hip-hop artist and quite the comedy act at his local venues. He is by far a nut-case on stage with such a unique wacky dance style, and his enthusiastic facial expressions in between songs keeps the crowd dancing all night long. Parker knows how to get a crowd going, that’s for sure. People are basically begging for him before he is even out on stage. It is like a sudden bomb drops the second he enters the stage, the crowd cannot seem to ever get enough. His energy and talent pave the way for a successful future as one of the very many undiscovered and undervalued, yet EXTREMELY skilled artist into the mainstream hip-hop world. I give him a five star review!  P.S. Peter Parker is the only hip-hop artist I have ever seen welcome “bitches” to come up on stage and with that have a multitude of women COME ON STAGE WILLINGLY within just seconds just so they can be within arms reach of Mr. Peter Parker himself. I give him two thumbs up!” – Rachel Harper
