Vursatyl – It’s Nothing [Video]
“It’s Nothing” is the 3rd single released from VURSATYL’s initial solo project entitled “Crooked Straights” on BBE Records/Misfit Records/VURSATYL Enterprises. The song is produced by fellow Oregon resident Pele Won. ‘It’s Nothing” serves as the center piece to ‘Crooked Straights’ and the reminder to those who know VURSATYL to be an ill MC that although ‘Crooked Straights’ is intentionally VURSATYL’s palatable, soulful, funky and groove heavy pace setter, he’s a beast on the mic. “It’s Nothing” displays that fact. The statement is simple, “Crooked Straights” is deliberately a record to ride to, vibe to and enjoy… But when it comes to “real spitting, lyricism and real MC’ing”…. “It’s Nothing” to VURSATYL.

Here goes the second single from Vursatyl’s “Crooked Straights” project, which is set to drop on April 27th. If you’ve caught Blackalicious on tour over the last fifteen years or so, you will have witnessed first hand the prodigious talent of Portland based rapper and singer Vursatyl. Now 24 years into his rap career, “Crooked Straights” marks a new chapter in Vurstatyl’s story; unbelievably this is the first time he’s taken centre stage to release a solo record. Full of warm, soulful, Dilla-esque hip hop beats created largely by local Portland producers, Vursatyl provides a master-class in the art of lyricism with a record which surely cements his reputation as one of the most respected artists in the hip hop community. Conscious lyrics delivered with a sense of fun and a touch of swagger makes this a ‘must check’ record for fans of golden era Hip Hop. “Crooked Straights” is my conflict. This Gold Chain wearin’, clothes hound, fly guy is “Crooked”. He’s also something of a taboo in “conscious Hip Hop”. But I also strive to keep things positive, both in mind and word… That’s the “Straights”. I’ve included the visual for the first single “Super” after the jump.
