Lawrence Rivers | “Underdog”, Savannah’s Introspective EP
Lawrence Rivers is back on Rap Fiesta with the release of his EP “Underdog“. He was last seen on our platform following the latest 2 releases, “Only A Matter of Time” and “Written In Stone“. The Georgia artist has leveled up increasingly since then, with the 4-track project showcasing an array of vulnerable music & extreme growth from the young artist. “Underdog” features a prophetic tone and continues the theme of colossal growth, while Lawrence paints colorful imagery of how to achieve it. If you’re into raw lyricism & authentic feelings, you’ve stumbled into the correct place.
They say the proof in the pudding, what if the pudding don’t got proof. – Lawrence Rivers
On the opening track “Underdog”, Lawrence wastes no time displaying his new sound. Characterized previously by fierce verses & an attack mindset, a more pensive & introspective Lawrence can be seen thought-coloring on the canvas. His flow is controlled, calming but yet concise. He doesn’t waste a bar while infusing light melodies into the symphony.
He follows this thought-provoking record with a powerful sermon over a simple piano melody on “Home Coming Interlude”. The interlude serves to re-instill values that all of us aspire to nurture. Even for a non-religious person, the spiritual words that are heard in the 2 minute audio are powerful and should not be ignored. It also serves as a smooth transition to the next record, “Skinner Drive”, featuring Soufside Slaughter.
On this record, the duo hold nothing back. It’s straight bars from front to back and the hunger is felt beneath the passion. With multiple releases and projects from the last time we interviewed Lawrence Rivers in 2018, he’s been consistent in his project releases and continued climb to the top.
“The way I read minds is like telepathy”
“Underdog” is about growth, introspection and cultivating your spirit. Lawrence Rivers is cultivating the emotional connection with his listeners by providing value in sonic form. Living the double life as an an artist and audio engineer, Lawrence’s focus is solely around creating music. A focus that he’s honing in on and displaying colorfully with “Underdog”. Whether you like introspective lyrics or rap bangers, Lawrence Rivers’ ensures a little bit of both with the release of this latest EP.
