Rexx Life Raj and D Smoke are joining hands for the “Optimistic” collaboration of “EMPIRE Presents: Voices For Change Vol. 1” Album.
With the launch of EMPIRE Presents today: Voices For Change Vol. 1, an album dedicated to standing up in the name of social inequality, is also a collaboration between D Smoke and Rexx Life Raj. “Optimistic” serves as a worthy showcase of their chemistry, with distinct but complementary styles being brought to the table by both rappers.
Rexx Life sets things off by taking on a bouncy instrumental with a meditation on the adversities he faces and the emotional anguish resulting from the injustices around him. And he's not alone — with a solid verse of his own, breakout lyricist D Smoke adds weight to the cause, raising fears about the current pandemic and the imminent election.
Lyrics Snippet
Ain't have shit for breakfast to my recollection
Everybody worried, bout to shut down, who wins the next election
To keep it honest worrying ain't part of my tradition
I was taught to practice the art of forever staying optimistic.
