Hansum Rell is prepping to dominate the stage on June 2nd & 4th at the Brooklyn Unity Fest. This performance will serve as the rapper’s re-introduction to the hip-hop realm. Not that one is needed because his bars speak volume alone. Moreover, Hansum Rell’s music delves into themes about love, loss, counting your blessings, and personal experiences. Throughout his records, the Victory curator takes a passionate approach when being fully transparent or dropping gems.
This performance at the Brooklyn Unity Fest is particularly significant because Brooklyn is Hansum Rell’s stomping ground.
Hansum Rell had to take a brief hiatus from music due to being incarcerated. Before this transpired, he hopped on Maino’s powerfully influential song “Still Here.” Following this, he was introduced to music mogul DJ Khaled. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, he missed his opportunity to sign with DJ Khaled’s label.
He channeled his situation that forced him to be away for ten months to create the song.
Over the golden era-inspired hip-hop beat, the elite lyricist pleads with his close ones to express their endearment while he’s still present. After all, life’s too short. These hard-hitting words are followed by Hansum’s unbreakable spirit. He says in these few lines,
“A lot of niggas they done hated but I’m still here/When you see me say what up while I’m still here.”
Furthermore, the “Love and Hate” MC discusses his mother’s concern. She worries because of the danger this world now (involuntarily) offers.
“My moms hear them cop sirens think I’m in the back/She hear them shots think I’m the one laying on my back,” he raps.
Deeper into his verse, he reminds his loved ones that he’s one phone call away. He’ll always pick up on the first ring no matter how long they’ve gone without speaking. Reminding listeners that cherishing moments to the fullest is essential, he raps
“I tell my niggas that I love them every time I see them/I know y’all praying for me while I’m fighting for my freedom/I don’t speak to a lot of niggas everyday/But I’m checking on your Instagram every day/I know you good I’m one call away/No matter what time it is hit my phone and I’m on my way.”
Before signing off, he tells all about the emotional distress he deals with daily. Hansum Rell closes with a bang with some encouraging words to live by.
“All gas no brakes until we finish nigga/While I’m here please tell me all my good things,” he raps. “Don’t wait until I’m gone to say I should of changed/When I die don’t put a RIP on my name/Say I’m the realest in person you met up in this game.”
Hansum Rell is heavily focused on his career and future features. In the meantime, make sure to check out his album Victory.
