TimingIsEverything-PremiereHipHop

East coast based online Premiere HipHop are well known to be connoisseurs of all hip hop which draws from the best traditions of meaningful lyricism and wordplay combined with superior production

They are the latest to endorse the debut album “Timing is Everything” by Detroit MC Kid Vishis. The review by the publication’s Victorious Allah focuses on the rhyme skills which have been honed over the past 10 years via a series of mixtapes and live performances around the world. Perhaps expected as the younger brother of Royce da 5’9″, but Vishis is laying down his own marker in the rap world, and a name to watch for over the coming years as the review summarizes:

“The whole album is a battle rapper gem with builds against the wack and the fake. The Kid is not to pass by. He’s ready and letting his thoughts and pen fly, letting us know that timing just might be everything.”
