Rolling in on Brooklyn attitude and a voice raspy beyond her years, L.atasha A.lcindor, better known as L.A. races around Pig Pen‘s “Scenario”-like beat with the style and gusto all aspiring MCs should have. Part autobiography, part hot-headed attack, and part musing on art, “L.A. State of Mind” is full of memorable moments, lyrical and musical. “Love Obama but some strings are attached to ’em / Love my momma but some strings are attached to her” L.A. raps, showing off her rare ability to craft a deceptively clever, impactful line, and peeling back a pair her personality’s layers. L.A. shows fiery promise–we hope to see her capitalize in a big way soon.
