SONG OF THE DAY
“Close To Heaven” by Maino (The Art Of War [mixtape], 2010).
WHERE I HEARD IT
I have no idea what radio station I was listening to, as I was just flipping around from station to station incessantly (as I am known to do), but I fell onto this song mid-way into it and I was struck by its solid rap section—I don’t like the low voice yelling stuff at the beginning, but whoever’s rapping in the verses (Maino?) has a great voice, tight lyrics and I like the rhythm and backbeat too. Enjoy, players.
