Chris Barth former Rolling Stones contributor wrote up a promising review for my EP.
"Marco Antonio Restrepo, better known in the music world as A.Tone Da Priest, has a lot to say. His songs are packed to the brim with verses about life, pain, joy, and rap, and endless onslaught of wise words and well-crafted flows. Where some rappers are content to ride a hook throughout their tunes, only throwing together thoughtful lyrics as a last resort, A.Tone puts the words first, making sure to make the most of every second he spends on the microphone. His songs, like the production behind them, are dense and lush, with never a wasted moment or a lingering note."

Is It Really Important?
How important is content nowadays? Do people really wanna be informed when they listen to music or do they just want to feel good and forget.
Either viewpoint is plausible but i must say that when the non-content is so nonchalantly hedonistic and sinful, it is almost a double negative. I mean you listen to a hot beat just to feel good and let go, and end up with demons subconsciously lowering your inhibitions towards murder, crime, promiscuity, and spending money i return... I think content is important, especially when you are a big time public speaker like most of the rappers are with their stages.
What if MLK with his influence had talked about all the woman he fucked outside of his wife and how because of this and how he is the greatest orator ever yall should follow his lead, exuding the same confidence and charisma that he preached his actual agenda with...
Well ill tell you what woulda happened... Present Day woulda came alot sooner
