Miles From Nothing, a 21-year young emcee on the move with nothing except verbal ambition in his heart, has released a new track featuring Army of The Pharaoh‘s member, Esoteric. The song is fittingly entitled Ruckus as the youngin’ and veteran slay emcees in a lyrical boxing ring, beating them down right in front of the cameras. What evidence?
A great song and beautifully cut visuals truly make the track a whole. I am interested to see where Miles heads as the years pass. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard his name and know it won’t be the last. He has great wordplay, an extensive vocabulary and was even able to keep up with a monumental MA emcee in his latest release. Watch the full video, below.
“Miles is young but he’s a rare breed of emcee, I wouldn’t say he’s under my tutelage, in fact we actually learn a lot from each other, it is good for me to capture the perspective of a 21 year old emcee. He’s adamant about recording together, no email shit, and he’s enthusiastic about that gritty production we use in AOTP…he gets points for that (laughs)…but the interesting thing is that he also makes records that remind me of something they’d throw in rotation on Hot97…the kid is versatile…for this joint “Ruckus” we just got in the lab on Newbury St in Boston and traded-off bars. He got up with John Greene for the video and captured us beating down some fake emcees, something I pride myself on doing. Look for more from us together, but keep an eye on him…he can jump into any lane and keep up” – Esoteric
