Briel | ‘Seeing Sounds’, Blind Rapper is The Rap Ray Charles
Rightfully dubbed the Rap Ray Charles, Briel is a blind rapper out of Philly. With his latest visual ‘Seeing Sounds‘ playing beautifully upon his branding, he brings the product to match. The dude spits fire, and his demeanor is chilling.
The first thing you’ll notice in the visual are his slick black glasses and heavy dog tag chain that add to his aesthetic. Right after the image, he comes with no remorse. His delivery is industry standard as you’ll feel like you’re already listening to someones whose made it. His verses are calm and collected, but you just get this feeling that he can snap off whenever he feels. His lyrical content is immaculate, and he never fails to stay on topic. He addresses issues from single mothers, to the struggles of taking care of elderly family, all the way down to the squad that keeps him humble. We love to see an artist in his element, and Briel did just that with this latest single.
My sequence Fibinachi, blunt rolled arms fold where the squad be.
