MP3: Granite State – The Get Up

This song takes me back to 2005 when I was a HUGE DC The Midi Alien fanatic. Seriously, any New Hampshire Hip-Hop record from 2004 to 2007 was Golden. Instant Classics. Don't get me wrong, I'm still a DC fan, but not a fanatic. "Gone with the Wind" by Granite State is still, in my opinion, one of the greatest rap instrumentals in underground hip-hop history. That record along with "Livin like this" set a new standard for anyone in New England trying to release rap music around that time.

This new track definitely sounds like a 2005 DC record and it should do really well (as far as underground hip-hop airplay goes) and if you like this record and you do not have the classic 2006 "Breaking Point" album from Granite State, or the 2006 'FundamentalUSA Compilation', you may be selling yourself short. So download this record, and pick up the classic records that came before it, and BUY THE NEW ALBUM – titled RE:Public which is officially in stores throughout the USA & digitally international through Itunes . I love the creative new approach and sound of this record, but I advise people to check out "The Breaking Point" before they grab the new record.

So Here's "The Get Up", Easily the most 'classic' sounding hip-hop record on the album, and features one of my favorite rap Producers, DC. The cuts at the end of the record are phenomenal, you'll be stunned when you get to the three minute mark.

Enjoy, and voice your thoughts on the new mp3!
