Substantial and Marcus D better known as Bop Alloy continue to take us on a journey they began many years ago, evolving Hip Hop music as we knew it with their new album “Winter Breaks 2”.
The dynamic duo produced a sound that came at a time before there was a subgenre to describe it. This mature, melodic, mood music offering transcends the boundaries of Hip Hop while staying true to its foundation based on dope lyrics and stellar production.
One of the best songs on the album is, “What’s it Without You”. A notoable verse from track is from Substantial saying:
“Rather embrace the pain than run and hide from the truth/ that’s my point of view/ hard to know what to do/ supposed to be 2020, our whole perspective is skewed/”.
