Local Rapper The Jacka Wants You To Name His New Song
Pittsburg rapper The Jacka has a new album on the way next year called Murder Weapon. Today, he released the first track from the forthcoming project, simply called "Untitled." But there's a (marketing) catch: He wants fans to name the song.
Thematically, "Untitled" abides by a fair amount of already-established hip-hop concepts; mainly, striving to get rich and better oneself while avoiding the pitfalls of illegal activities. And the decision to sample the most recognizable part of Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide" is highly questionable. Luckily for us, The Jacka is a talented enough emcee that he can somehow salvage what should otherwise be a musical trainwreck.
If you'd like to name this piece of work, you can send The Jacka a reply on Twitter, and he'll announce the winner on Saturday.
