Era Kills

Era Kills:
Era Kills is an artist from Albuquerque, NM who has been in the game since he was 15. He has worked with MANY other local artists. His bio states him as a "Punchline Master" an he prides himself on rhyming 2 or more syllables.

I listened to the tracks called "Move" and "Time For Me To Go".

I was thorougly impressed with his lyrical content of both tracks. The lack of concept on "Move" actually seemed to work on the track. Just one of those "I got something to say" type of tracks. It would most likely be a fun song to perform and would definitely get a crowd's attention. I personally would not play this song regularly.
On the other hand "Time For Me To Go" is an infectious track with a hook that really sticks with you and is not easily fogotten. I think the song was very well planned out and just all around speaks to many people. I am a fan of this track.
I do think that Era Kills could put much more emotion into his delivery. I want to feel the anger on "Move" and some more PUSH on "Time For Me To Go". They are both great songs but I want to get out of my seat or get choked up because I know how Era Kills felt while recording these songs.
Era Kills is a great artist at the end of the day and if you want to hear something and think "I've felt that way" or "Dang, this goes hard" then this is an artist to consider.
