Houston rapper Rocky Banks sent me two fire ass songs called “Mini Me” and “Through the Phone.” After pressing play on the tracks, I felt an obligation to drop them. His last project ‘Trust In Banko’ continues to be slept on, but Rock should wake them up with this one-two punch.
On the first single “Mini Me” produced by Louie JI and Darius 1500, the Indie Pick of the Week alumnist sons all his enemies that envy him in a Austin Powers fashion. Rocky delivers scathing lyrics over the thumping bass-heavy instrumental, that is guaranteed to make you bop your head. Listen below.
The second single “Through the Phone” produced by Daud Leon, has Rocky getting his mojo back, while letting go of distractions and regaining his focus. Rocky says “Through the Phone” goes through the motions of a point in time where he felt the need to work harder after getting a bit complacent.
“I didn’t have my blinders on in the race and started slowing down. Paying attention to a bunch of false advertisement and falling for the propaganda. This was me doing a self check and pretty much laying it out for the listener,” he said.
