Every creative knows the feeling: you stare at a blank page, a flickering cursor, or an empty DAW session, convincing yourself you've hit a brick wall. We love to romanticize "writer's block" as some external monster holding our art hostage. But underground hip-hop lyricist Tek tha Supah LAtin is here to hand us a reality check with his latest single, "Let Us Begin."
On the new track, Tek steps behind the metaphorical podium, writing and delivering the entire record from the perspective of a seasoned teacher addressing a classroom. Instead of feeding into the myth of artistic paralysis, the track serves up a refreshing dose of accountability: most of the time, we aren't blocked—we're just getting into our own heads. With the support of Beatsmith Medore on the mpc pads, the duo continue to release timeless ear art.
