For those unfamiliar, Amir Obé is an emerging emcee formerly known as Phreshy Duzit, born in Brooklyn and raised in Detroit. "Jay Z, Kanye, Esco" is a new single from his upcoming Detrooklyn mixtape, soundtracked by Detroit producer NYLZ.
The track finds Obé discussing the effect Jay Z, Kanye West and Nas have had on his artistry and life in general. Can you relate?
The last we heard of Amir was "Detroit Cartier", another cut from Detrooklyn also produced by NYLZ. Listen here.
Stay tuned for the new tape, and hit the young lords with a follow on Twitter in the meantime: @PhreshyDuzit / @_NYLZ.
Quotable Lyrics
You ain't see my POV - try to make me B.o.B.
I'd rather be broke in the D, playin' that COD
Listenin' to idols I never got the chance to impress
I used to do it all for that, but now I'm easin' the stress
-Amir Obé
