“I ain’t on a molly dog, but everything is peachy,” Pell raps toward the end of the song. This almost sounds like another disposable and self-righteous, “I don’t do molly” line, but it’s actually one of the strongest moments on “Prophecy.” Though Pell would love to have 1000 more fans and the money to afford a molly habit, he lacks both. Nevertheless, he strives for them (the money, not the molly) through his efforts and his belief in his talent. It’s a difficult path, but he walks it anyway, seeking to fulfill his prophecy through perpetual motion rather than inertia.
“Prophecy” is the second release in Pell‘s #TFGTuesday campaign, which is releasing new music every Tuesday until September 17 in promotion of his upcoming tour, which has the dates listed at the end of this post. Listen below and check back in next Tuesday. As we informed you last week, all the songs have been vetted and are certifiably dope.
If the beat sounds familiar, that’s because it’s from The Roots‘ “Hall and Oates” a song from their tribute album for the deceased J Dilla. Also, you are probably a rap nerd.
