Charlie Careless | ‘Groovy’, Brooklyn Bars Personified
Charlie Careless out of Brooklyn, NY is coming for people’s necks with his latest drop ‘Groovy’. The track is lyrically packed with a mouthful of syllables & scissor sharp bars. After one listen, you’ll respect his pen game & ability to slaughter a beat. ‘Groovy’ is a joint to get hype to and let loose on. The perfect record to run through the AUX on a summer day, or the type of record to put you in your bag when you’re feeling down. A true mood re-starter for those who need a jump start to a gloomy day. The kid has the talent and an infectious demeanor. Rap Fiesta is delighted the New York rhyme slayer dropped this present off for us.
Right from the jump, he enters the verse in aggressive fashion playing off the trumpets sizzling in the background. To be honest, you won’t be readily prepared to endure his blazing bars based on the calmness that sets in the intro. ‘Groovy’ gives off a hungry, and certain New York grittiness that comes off unapologetic & confident. His flows glide on the colorblind produced record with precision and intricate lyrics. His wordplay weaves through the beat purposefully. Every pocket he hits feels like a kid on the playground playing hopscotch. It’s almost too effortless & natural for the Brooklyn bomber. We wanted to know what invited Charlie Careless to get in his bag like this and he came back with,
This song was inspired by weed and nostalgia. I grew up feeling like everyone around gave up on there dreams and stood with being complacent and it annoys me. I hate people that give up on what they feel strongly about because it’s not being appreciated to a level they feel at a rate they feel it should happen. The work ethic never equals up to the will. I named it Groovy cause I needed it to not sound like I was pissed off. So I had to smoke and just accept people for people but ima do me so? “GROOVY”
With a strong head on his shoulders and the pureness he holds in staying true to himself, the future will be exciting considering his expressive skillset. This record, in particular, is 4 minutes of pure bars and packed punch. He doesn’t waste much energy on graceful melodies but dives more into the nitty-gritty. His name is fitting for his aura as well, he truly gives off a nonchalant attack. It’s dangerous but fun. We asked Charlie Careless how he arrived at this moniker, and his answer is fitting.
My original name was Charlie B… Cause my real name is Charles Boone so a friend just started calling me Charlie B… and I ran with it but when I got a little older I stopped trying to rap for people’s appreciation and just made music that people can appreciate… there is a difference in that. I stopped caring about anything that was against the grain… And just made music cause I couldn’t care less, Hence Charlie Careless
Truly, a hand-in-glove fit stage name for the up & coming rapper. With his next moves lying in the release of his mixtape ‘Carefree Thoughts’ his branding is on point, and he’s also in the midst of writing his brand new album.
