Tree drops another "Treestyle," "Testify."

The past month or two have given us a whole host of new "Treestyles" from Chicago "soul-trapper" Tree, and unlike the ones he was doing last year, they're all-original. The latest is "Testify," a cut produced by Jae Monee. 

Unlike the other tracks in the "Treestyles" series, this one skews closer to the actual soul-trap of Tree's excellent 2013 tape Sunday School II: When Church Lets Out, rather than the more experimental sound he's been favoring lately. Over a warm string sample, Tree raps and sings over the course of this brief track. "Testify" might be the best one of this series so far. 

Quotable Lyrics

This for them days we hustled in front of Fudrucker's
You know them 'heads, them junkies and them bloodsuckers
Out of them caves, how they enslave all of us
I'm tryin' to be great, I'm tryin' to be like none other
