The Verse - Cross Country Borden

Weekly Music

Recently, I had the pleasure of discovering an emerging artist named The Verse, who just dropped his latest single titled "Cross Country Borden." My introduction to The Verse happened when a close friend sent me his track "OGILVY," and ever since then, I've been keeping a close eye on his music. With "Cross Country Borden," The Verse has truly delivered something exceptional, and I can't help but feel captivated by his sound, which carries a distinctly nostalgic vibe reminiscent of the early 2010s trap era. One striking aspect of The Verse's music is the way he skillfully blends various hip-hop sounds, creating a harmonious fusion of styles that is distinctly his own. The energy he brings to his delivery is powerful and full of life, It’s a fun and viby energy that feels exciting. Not all music has to be something profound. Tracks like this are what leave a lasting impression on someone trying to have fun. When I listen to his music, I can't help but draw parallels to Takeoff, with the flows and cadence reminiscent of the iconic Atlanta trap sound. However, what makes it even more exciting for me is the fact that The Verse hails from Montreal. This goes to show that there's an abundance of untapped talent in our own country, and artists like him proudly showcase that through their music. The production of "Cross Country Borden" is undeniably fantastic. From the beat selection to the fantastic mixing, everything comes together seamlessly, resulting in a track that is both enjoyable and energetic. One aspect that caught my attention was the creative use of ad-libs. The Verse ingeniously employs them to add a unique tonality to his delivery, often making them the focal point of the track. The way he blends his ad-libs into the music creates an effect that's both bold and attention-grabbing. The Verse's effortless and fun approach to his music is evident throughout "Cross Country Borden." It's refreshing to see an artist embrace the joy of creating music without falling into a trap of overly serious or overly complex tones. Sometimes, what matters most is the lit atmosphere of a track, as it not only increases its reach but also ensures replay value for years to come. "Cross Country Borden" is a fun and viby and creative piece that just has great replay value. The blend of American and Montreal influences adds an exciting dimension to his music, making it a captivating journey for any listener with something to base the music on. The Verse is undoubtedly a rising star in the music industry, and I can't wait to see what he’s got going next.
