Delivering a powerhouse collaboration, Epic Records and GRAMMY® Award-winning iconic producer, rapper, DJ, entrepreneur, and cultural connoisseur Swizz Beatz uncover the soaring seventh single from GODFATHEROFHARLEM:Season 3 entitled “Street Opera” [feat. SAINt JHN, Fivio Foreign, & BIA]. Listen to “Street Opera” HERE via Epic Records.
The track unites three 21st century titans on one cinematic anthem. SAINt JHN uplifts the energy to the heavens, while Fivio Foreign stomps across the beat with drill bars. Meanwhile, BIA makes her presence known with a highly quotable turn. “Street Opera” lives up to its title as a skyscraping anthem.
GODFATHER OF HARLEM has yielded a succession of standouts. In addition to “NARCI” [feat. Mike Diamonds], “Top Tier” [feat. ADE& Symba] arrived last month, inciting buzz further. Meanwhile, GRAMMY® Award-nominated Ghanaian multiplatinum artist and songwriter Lord Afrixana [Jidenna, Beyoncé] delivered an entrancing Afro-inspired anthem for the Soundtrack with “Bad Guy.” It picked up plugs from HipHopSince1987 and more.
It served as the follow-up to Busta Rhymes’s banger “Murda” [feat. Bilal]. The Source asserted, “He combines vintage New York hip-hop with expert verbal gymnastics. Meanwhile, Bilal, a vocal powerhouse from Philadelphia, arrives with a soulful counterweight to Busta’s explosive performance.”
It landed in the wake of Dave East’s “Damn.” Immediately, REVOLT proclaimed, “On the song, the two New York natives combine their strengths to embody the attitude of the series.” Listen to “Damn” HERE.
The latter arrived on the heels of “Hustle, Repeat” [feat. Swizz Beatz & Jadakiss]. Listen to “Hustle, Repeat” HERE.
Right out of the gate, HipHopDX praised, “The song was released on Friday (January 13) and finds Swizz lacing Kiss with an alarming, heavy-hitting beat over which the LOXlyricist unleaThisIs50 and more, HotNewHipHop raved, “The LOX wordsmith’s gritty bars and slick wordplay takes center stage over Swizz Beatz’s production while detailing the criminal underworld. Though Jadakiss isn’t making blatant references to Bumpy Johnson, the resilient attitude mirrors the Harlem Kingpin’s.”
Each Friday, a new track will debut in advance of Sunday’s new episode of GODFATHEROFHARLEM: SEASON 3.
