“COBRA CLUTCH” AFU-RA
– 1st Single released off of long awaited the album “The Mazter Chef” Album 2016
Afu-Ra took all the tension built up inside for the somewhat lopsided evidence of bullshit over quality music and slammed it out in the writing and the deliverance of his vocal prowess to bring the world the single
“COBRA CLUTCH”– https://afu-ra.bandcamp.com/
This record is not unlike some of Ra’s previous endeavors but at the same time a lyrical sculpture of a version or verbal gymnastics spine tingling metaphors that he has yet to unleash until now. Afu-Ra quotes “I want to unveil a single to and for my hardcore Hip Hop supporters that will give us all hope that the art of a battle rap mc is not dead but a technique of the future”.
Many might and will be true with their statements that this title was used before on so and so’s record however the impact of this record will be quite different.
This record is yet another staple of the brute force dexterity that Afu-Ra possess’s as he prove. This song crafting skills and MC abilities as he fires off a heat seeking missile of a track as the first single of his fifth solo album.
“Body of the Lifeforce”, “Lifeforce Radio”, “State of the Arts” and “Body of Lifeforce part 2” were classic bodies of work in their own write as well-being being critically acclaimed by many.
Traveling the world, pushing the message of self-inspiration and spiritual guidance ́Ra always feels like he has something left to do that has never done before.
“Wake these heads up that are awoke but sleeping”.
Traveling through the barrage of internet confusion and mediocre talents, PHILTY PRO handed ́Ra this gym of an instrumental and the two of them went to work immediately.
Afu-Ra is excited about his entire body of work but just as much is very proud to deliver to the world the “COBRA CLUTCH”
