Romaro Franceswa sounds like a pint-sized kid stepping into the ring with a champion heavyweight, all the while exuding a kind of inescapable confidence. He knows what he’s about to do: bob, duck, weave, put in well placed jab, and slowly but surely, bring down the titan with agility and ingenuity. That’s the spirit behind “The Big Payback,” which finds Romaro taking on each and every stereotype that pollutes the hip-hop industry. It doesn’t hurt that Romaro is backed by an over-the-top James Brown sample and is led through this task by a fantastic video. Aside from its crisp editing and composure, it’s funny and eye catching, a great step for the young Seattle gun. Enjoy “The Big Payback” below.
