Rising lyricist Saint Roc is bold, confident, expressive, and emotionally relatable with his new single “Still Mine”

Everything about Saint Roc’s performance in “Still Mine” is enough for me to declare that he is so much more than just a rapper; he is an artist and an incredibly gifted wordsmith with a knack for flow and delivery. He is measured and composed, confident and still expressive, with his sharp-witted and smoothly refined cadence capturing everything that is in his heart and soul. This is a heartfelt release that comess from someone who was deep in his psyche when making it—benefiting from a moment of solitude where he just let his thoughts flow, and the end result is something as earnest and profound as this.

The production for “Still Mine” is another delightful element to this super special jam. It harkens back to the golden age of hip-hop and rap. It is smooth and soulful, with an introspectively warm and inviting quality that makes it feel like it was specifically created for you. And it fits the mood, any day, any time!

The subtle boom-bap influences and the gentle yet emotive smoothness provide the perfect backdrop for the lyrical assertiveness of Saint Roc as he speaks his mind, capturing his soul, vision, and experiences as both an upcoming artist who doesn’t appreciate being boxed and a young African-American man navigating the ever-present systematic injustices and racism, trying to climb through these loops that have specifically been put in his way for him to mess up.

Here, he wears the hat of someone who has already been targeted and set up to fail, but someone who is also resilient enough to not fold under pressure, triumphing his way through every adversity and obstacle, and picking himself up through every intentionally directed frustration the system puts him through.

Heartfelt, introspective, solemn, and emotionally relatable, “Still Mine” is so much more than just a song; this is a personal conversation that deserves to spark others more like it!
