With a career many can only dream of, The Loose Cannon65 establishes himself as rap music savvy, preserving the lost purity of the genre with both finesse and elegance. On the mic, he easily humbles your favorite emcee. It is on the booth or stage where he comes alive, like an explosive wordsmith, effortlessly blurring the lines between rapper and artist. His strengths lie in so many things, but one thing has always been apparent; his unparalleled love and unequivocal passion for hip-hop. He has performed with the likes of Fat Joe, Jadakiss, and DMX, and was involved in DMX’s award-winning debut album, “It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot.” He has gone on to sell massive records and continues to leave his indelible imprint on the hip-hop scale. He truly embodies an artist’s ‘dream’ whichever way you look at it.
The airwaves are buzzing following The Loose Cannon65’s newest release, titled “WAKING UP 2 U,” a collaborative tour de force with his 6IX 5IVE labelmate, Luther Van Savage.
“WAKING UP 2 U” features a guitar-laden intro that sets a smooth foundation for The Loose Cannon65 to walk on right before the sparse, heavy basslines, menacing synths, and dark, haunting, drill-inspired soundscape are unleashed. Showcasing his peerless range, he equally excels on this ominous beat with his gravelly vocal tones reminiscent of an artist like Pop Smoke.
The Loose Cannon65’s delivery here is marked with instantly identifiable verses and an incredibly memorable hook where the gist of the track resides. The guest artist, Luther Van Savage, also contributes to the success of the jam with his memorable cameo.
“WAKING UP 2 U” addresses the unforeseen attachment a person develops for a one-night stand or sneaky link, and their desire to pursue it further. It is a theme that resonates with many who have found themselves developing feelings during an occasional dalliance.
To further elevate the track’s impact, The Loose Cannon65 shot a visually striking and engaging music video that complements the song’s core message, making it a must-watch for fans.
“WAKING UP 2 U” is now available on popular streaming platforms and is ideal for all hip-hop fans, old and young, as there are no profanities involved—a first for The Loose Cannon65!
