The Kid Daytona - Daytona 500
I told you guys I was going hard with the music grid for the rest of May. I won't even let you ease into the lyrical heat. This first guy is a monster and, not to mention, one of the freshest cats in the game right now (top 5, at least).
Kid Daytona - The Daytona 500
The Bronx has done it again!!! Repping for uptown this time is The Kid Daytona. My first and maybe your first introduction to this man is his new mixtape The Daytona 500. The mixtape conceptually is great, using one of the most sampled tracks, "Nautilus" by Bob James (eventually Ghostface's "Daytona 500"), as the basis for all of its song. The result doesn't turn out repetitive or corny. In fact, the idea of being able to sample the same song numerous times and still have a fresh take on it for every track is extremely dope. It makes one realize how truly exemplary his production must be to milk one song for all of its musical value. That's not to say that Daytona's lyricism isn't up to par. In all honesty, he reminds me of Mickey Factz with a more laid back flow (imagine those two on a song together). Dude does a lot of reality rap and keeps his topics fresh and engaging. But that's enough wax poetic from my side. Experience the Kid Daytona for yourself with think D/L link for "The Daytona 500", my picks, some videos and other leaks. Deuces.

None (the mixtape is only 7 songs long and there were no glaring weak tracks)
