Audio: Phonte “Not Here Anymore” f/ Elzhi (prod. 9th Wonder)

Certain track titles just sell themselves. I mean what am I really gonna say after “Phonte featuring Elzhi, produced by 9th Wonder“? I could say “get right up for the reunion” or “they are hip-hop” or “new version of Pete Rock” or something clever like that. But that would probably just generate controversy when we should all be able to agree that this is what the game’s been missing and just enjoy the track. This is the first single from Phonte’s Charity Starts at Home which drops on the 27th day of Cackalack, I mean September.

Phonte & El killed it, but I feel like 9th could’ve chopped the sample better. *shrug* Good stuff though.

  Yeah, that beat is jive boring. 9th’s music is a little predictable.

“okay-player-haters.” Typical….lol.

  I would love to find the first douche-bag that made the word “Hate and/or Hater,” popular.
  
  That way; I could hop in my Delorean, go back to the future and pinpoint the exact date and time he or she plans on using the word, and proceed to remove his or her vocal cords with my razor sharp, Adamantium claws, before the cock-sucker gets a chance to utter those words!!!

“I don’t need the limelight…that’s young nigga shit/ I’m a OG and the G is for gentleman” that line alone says it all. Phonte makes great music and has never went with the crowd for props. If this song is any indication of how the album will be, then the game needs to prepare like we prepared for Irene! Keep doin it fellas, fuck all that negative shit, let them go listen to Gucci Mane and the rest of his lil trap bunch!

  Gucci Mane?
  
  It’s funny to read people’s reactions, when someone states that they don’t like a particular song.
  
  “…go listen to Gucci Mane…” LOL! Tell me, why should I go listen to Gucci Mane?

StreetWalkingBaby

Nice smooth rhythm, lyrics are real good. I think they deserve a better beat imo. Good song though. It’s jammin,

this is alight. Verses are tough as expected but the beat is a snoozer for sure. Would’ve liked to hear something more urgent.

No disrespect to Big Pooh…but THIS is the lineup I always wished Little Brother was.
