AbTheActivist’s ‘ESCAPISM’ is a project made from his making
AbTheActivist’s pen game’s never been in doubt, could’ve only been so if you were not listening to his early material. He’s shifted a few gears since and has cut his ‘hibachi’ in what is a rare balance, a skilled tradesman who is also astute when it comes to the game. His latest tape has a few jewels that I really enjoyed and could have been a classic, the one criticism I have is really around the project’s engineering quality. I’ve come to expect a higher level of quality, but I won’t dwell – its a project thats built for Hiphop lovers and I want to leave it at just that. The rapper/producer has come a long way and ‘Escapism’ is actually a decent listen

One Take 267’s “Run the Payment” freestyle is the latest addition to his impressive catalogue. Over a hard-hitting, drill-inspired beat, One Take 267 once again flexes his prowess and street credibility with lines like, “Run the payment in cash, bring it to 20s, 50s, and 100s.” His delivery is raw and honest, never afraid to test himself, while reflecting his deep ties to the streets.
He navigates the beat with ease, dropping bars about moving with “heathens, shot callers, street bandits,” and emphasizing his commitment to authenticity. One Take 267 declares he’s no regular rapper, eschewing idle chatter for silent moves: “No chit chat ting no more, talk about moving in silence.”
This freestyle is a powerful display of One Take 267’s talent and his genuine connection to the street life, making it clear that he’s more than just a player in the game. He’s solidifying his position as a significant force in the hip-hop world.
