Once in a While by DeeZystep

On "Once in a While" by Deezystep, fans are treated to three-and-a-half minutes of rapid-fire rapping laid atop chill, low-key beats. The lyrics are clever, witty, and on point, always refreshing in an era characterized by nonsensical overproduced hip-hop. Deezystep seems to be channeling a golden age of '90s rap, an experience that is both nostalgic and refreshing at the same time. "Once in a While" also succeeds in leaving the listener wanting more, cutting out just when you are ready for another verse. Well done, Deezystep.

Like where you're coming from - do you know a musician called Simon Tam? He has a guitar-based band called The Slants, he was raised and based in the Bay Area until recently, now he's in Nashville, but still - I think you should reach out to him as he's determined to raise the profile of Asian-American musicians - he is well-placed to support South-East Asian-American artists. I hope you don't mind me talking about race, but obviously, it would be super cool for more people of color to get heard, and so that's one angle for you to explore. Good luck!

I won't say I felt this was ready for primetime, but it was a cool track, the beat was awesome, and you clearly have a lot of talent. The video was also a good example of how up-and-coming artists can make a clip without spending tons of money. Good job!
