“Mista Books. The name says it all. He raps like a writer. He writes like a rapper. This guy is good. Real Good. OK. He’s better than most rappers I’ve heard in the past few years. Why? Because his lyrics tell a story. They make sense.”
With his debut album "Hardcover" dropping soon, Mista Books has released a brand new video for the upcoming LP’s lead single “Nuff Said” exclusively via Configaration Records/Laidlaw Media!
“Mista Books is someone that any true student of Nigerian hip-hop music should be familiar with, and today he delivers a new hardcore rap song titled Shady Industry. The song was produced by Pherowshuz and features veteran lyricist Modenine.”
“It’s been quite a while we last heard from the Lyricist himself, Mista Books… he comes back to the scene with a hard, emotional and melancholic cut titled ‘Being A Nigerian (BAN).’“
“…this just reminded me of how much I’ve missed good ol’ rap music. Nothing but powerful flows combined with complex lyrics, over a dope instrumental… honestly, anyone who questions this dude’s lyrical talent obviously needs some good smacking, trust me this is really worth the dl.”
“The Coalcity-born producer that happens to be ultra-nice on the mic decides to mark the end of 2011, and releases some dope for his loyal listeners. It’s All Over (Year End Freestyle) is definitely on point.”
