Vice Souletric feat. Talib Kweli, G. Huff & Will Blaze – Return of The Black Man [Audio]

Rapper-producer Vice Souletric returns today with “Return Of The Black Man”, a call-to-arms banger from the proud Ohioan and his guests., Talib Kweli, crooner Will Blaze, and frequent collaborator, G. Huff. The powerful single is also his first offering from the soon-coming “Vice for President 2”, a full-length project set to drop on February 26. And if “Return Of The Black Man” is any indication, it’ll be the multi-talented artist’s finest effort to date. Backed by his own heavy instrumental, Vice and his guests go in on what it’s like to be a Black man in America. That includes Huff questioning the double-standard of folks acting “like these white boys don’t wear tattoos and sag” along with Kweli noting the “system’s assassination of the Black male image.” But it’s Vice’s opening verse that hits the hardest, especially when he spits “I know you sick of hearin’ about it, but man look/ We sick and tired of being mistreated and ambushed.” “Vice For President 2: There’s No Tomorrow Til You Wake Up” is due out Feb. 26 through Vice’s own United Grind imprint.

While treadmills give you a reason to move, they create the impression that you’re making progress. In all actuality, you’re at the very same place in which you started. This happens to the best of us; without realizing, we adapt to the same goals and ambition of those around us. To break this cycle, take heed from the wise words of the Lorain, Ohio beatsmith/emcee, Vice Souletric, who unites with fellow statesman, G. Huff, and Beantown’s, REKS, on the appropriately titled, “Treadmill Lifestyle,” which serves to break the cats and the cradle syndrome that traps many of us from making real power moves, over Vice’s head nodding production. “Treadmill Lifestyle” is the 3rd and final leak taken from Vice’s April 7th, debut EP, Vice for President, through United Grind.
