With today’s release of EMPIRE Presents: Voices For Change Vol. 1, an album dedicated to standing up in the name of social injustice, so too comes a collaboration between Rexx Life Raj and D Smoke. “Optimistic” serves as a worthy showcase of their chemistry, with both rappers bringing different yet compatible styles to the table.
Taking to a bouncy instrumental, Rexx Life sets things off with a reflection on the adversities he’s faced and the mental anguish that stems as a result of the injustices surrounding him. And he’s not alone — breakout lyricist D Smoke adds weight to the cause with a strong verse of his own, addressing concerns about the ongoing pandemic and imminent election. “To keep it honest worrying ain’t part of my tradition,” he raps.”I was taught to practice the art of forever staying optimistic.”
Rexx Life Raj – Optimistic (ft. D Smoke)
Lyric Video
Ain’t have shit for breakfast to my recollection
Everybody worried, bout to shut down, who wins the next election
To keep it honest worrying ain’t part of my tradition
I was taught to practice the art of forever staying optimistic.
