Grammy-Award Winning Artist Releases Lead-Single With An Assist From Jean Grae

You have heard Grammy Award-winning trumpet player Maurice “Mobetta” Brown before.  After all, he’s appeared on LP’s from Santigold, Ski Beatz, Prodigy, Talib Kweli, Cee-Lo, Diddy, Musiq Soulchild and countless others; but you heard his trumpet and not his voice. 

Think Louis Armstrong and his trumpet uploaded for the 21st century to a Hip-Hop beat, and you begin to understand who this young genius is. Maurice is a classically-trained Jazzman mentored and supported by the iconic Wynton Marsalis and the legendary Ramsey Lewis. But “Mobetta” is also a Hip-Hop head for life, and that journey on this planet rock literally parallels the history and evolution of rap. Little wonder that Maurice not only blows the roof off God’s sky with his horn, but he also spits lyrics the way Satchmo spit his own brand of vocalese back in the day. Yup, Mobetta is a horn-playing-rhyme-spraying-dancing machine that Jazz-Hip-Hop collaborators like Donald Byrd and Gang Starr’s Guru, or Ron Carter and A Tribe Called Quest fantasized about in the early 1990s. No need to cram to make that Jazz/Hip-Hop experiment happen in these times because Maurice Brown is the living and breathing embodiment of it all, a one-stop shop destined to be this era’s Quincy Jones. And then some!

Fresh off of winning his very first Grammy with Tedeschi Trucks Band for Best Blues Album of the year in 2012 (Maurice was the horn arranger for the 11-piece ensemble), Maurice is prepping his latest release, Maurice vs Mobetta, or, rather, Maurice’s azz side versus his Hip-Hop persona. Maurice vs Mobetta features appearances from Talib Kweli, Consequence, Prodigy, Jean Grae and production from Fyre Dept, DJ Scratch and Maurice himself and its a mere sampling of what’s in-store on Maurice vs Mobetta; as Brown has more in store, not only on this new effort, but coming down the pike. Know that Maurice vs Mobetta is a gumbo sound lab for this dynamic young trumpet player-arranger-producer. 

And Maurice “Mobetta” Brown is just getting warmed up…

Brotha Lynch Hung - On Halloween Night

running a game that the po cant afford to play

i know ya heard that
crackin when i swung my baseball bat
connect to hit the back of them parasitic bank windows
there's yer fuckin overdraft
paid in a thousand pieces
of jagged smashed glass 
now it's a backlash
simple students turned bandits 
outta hand & demanding
if you aint about the people
 and you aint about the planet
better get off our block,
or we'll make damn sure you panic

this is why we mask up when we act up 
gettin dirty dirty, don't wanna call that attorney 
this is why we act up when we mask up
mother earth is hurtin and she's callin for back up  

this is why we ransack when we ran scams to stack cash
cuz if it can't be tracked, then it  can't be taxed
this is why we still scrappin outta trash cans
how we manifest a meal when we don't wanna steall
this is why cut locks on the breaker box
why the hood gets together to build them roadblocks
serving up molotovs  that'll really hit the the spot
 
this is why we mask up when we act up 
gettin dirty dirty, don't wanna call that attorney  
this is why we act up when we mask up
mother earth is hurtin and she's callin for back up
  
running a game that the po can't afford to play

i got my vocab
my word is my gat
this how i shoot back
this is how i stay strapped
cuz all them little piggies are quick to risk us gettin our ass capped
for the money making fatman
they got sum kinda nerve
talkin bout "protect & serve"
thats a muthafuckin fairy tale if i ever heard

this is how turn despair into strength
like how we sprout seeds into nourishment
ya dig?

These Things Happen

Lotta That (feat. A$AP Ferg & Danny Seth)

Just a short verse I randomly wrote this afternoon. Just getting back into writing and recording again before I release a new project this year. Peace to Gab from the Writers Block Facebook Group-- his post inspired me to hop on this Dilla beat, too. 

Emcees - Feel free to add a verse or hook to this

Lyrics:
I conjure up these verses just to conquer, be iconic
You comics incompetent, so im gone off the common knowledge
come on, cuz im losin conscience, but concious of all the options
few things is remaning constant, my calling and this concoction

of beats and the constant clockwork of verses like kamikazee
skip the consequence, i got this when all you carbon copy
are caught in a common problem of probably tryna stop me
Its common they leavin comments but colleagues will never drop me

and oddly, being this "Godly," take my "prey" and disembody
I gotta drop it and rock it to top its more than a hobby/
but - aint no "deal" for I (eye) like I talked to a Shinigami/
my rhymes are "death notes," how many beats I gotta body/

I'm a "mad villian," I relapse and do miles (Daniel Dumile)
Yall "Doomed MF's" cant "mask" your used styles
these idioms im sendin em to idiots and simpletons
dont pity em, i sentence em, opinions, dependin when

we role "models" so the stage like runways/
Im tryna run away to one way, the suns rays/
we focus on our daughters and the way our sons raised/
uh, Ruby Ibarra, Ima make it one day/
