Mysonne is one guy who's stayed true to the game and himself throughout his career. A Bronx native, the rapper's continued to make sure that the tradition of keeping the pen sharp is alive while pushing messages to, at the very least, spark a thought in your mind. Today is a special day for Mysonne as he slid through with his new project, Soul Not For Sale.
Along with the new project, he came through with the visuals for "I Had A Dream," the lead single off of the project. With production from Mafioso, Mysonne's lyrical prowess is shining on this one as he shares a message of hope. The single closes out with a clip from MLK's "I Have A Dream" speech. Considering it is MLK Jr. day, it's an appropriate way to close out a song.

Quotable Lyrics
This is mob ties, late night car drives
Thinkin' 'bout what it's gon' take for us to all rise
We've been apart since apartheid
When 'Pac died, a part of my heart cried
When Nip died, shit is like we all cried
Dudes the kind of kings that deserve to be glorified
