NFL Reggiee | ‘Shalonda’s Son’, A Bold Intro To The World
With the release of his newest album, ‘Shalonda’s Son,’ NFL Reggiee proves that he’s making an impact in the hip-hop industry, whether you like him or not. The 10-track project showcases NFL Reggiee’s lyrical and emotional range, making ‘Shalonda’s Son‘ an album you can easily listen to from top to bottom without ever getting bored.
The Savannah, Georgia, native uses his latest album as his official introduction to the music game. Although the rapper has only been creating music for less than a year, you’d never guess so by the quality of his album. With ‘Shalonda’s Son‘ being NFL Reggiee’s first album, he used it as an inspiration to attack the project with his best effort. That way, his growing audience can really get a feel for his music style and what he’s all about.
Another way NFL Reggiee expresses what’s most important to him is through his stage name. The ‘NFL’ part of his stage name is actually an acronym with a double meaning. The Savannah rapper explains that ‘NFL’ stands for ‘Never Forget Loyalty’ as well as ‘No Fake Love.’
Loyalty is a big part of my character, so I wanted something with loyalty in my name from the start – NFL Reggiee.
Top to bottom, ‘Shalonda’s Son,’ is a vibe. NFL Reggiee’s rap style and the sound of his voice are undeniably comparable to Calboy, and Polo G. It almost feels like the growing artist is a perfect blend between the 2 big-name rappers. With flows like Calboy and the emotional depth in his lyrics like Polo G, there’s no doubt there are big things in store for NFL Reggiee.
NFL Reggiee kicks off his album on a strong note with ‘Losing My Way.’ This track allows NFL Reggiee to make a commanding entrance and immediately displays the tones for the album’s remainder. A heavy bass pattern combines with softener elements to create a laid-back yet emotionally deep track.
‘Shalonda’s Son‘ received help from several producers to craft the beats you experience. Even though NFL Reggiee works with different producers, every beat on the album carries his unique tone and energy. On most of the tracks, you’ll experience a bumpin’ bass standard in hip-hop rhythms complemented by R&B-like elements. The juxtaposing combination of noises creates a relaxing wave that only gets better with NFL Reggiee’s bars.
Choosing what track on ‘Shalonda’s Son‘ is the best is too difficult because each song is pure heat. However, one track that caught our attention here at Rap Fiesta is ‘No Shame.’ From the start, NFL Reggiee brings addicting energy, displaying a boppin’ flow over a beat that makes you wanna dance. Like every other track on ‘Shalonda’s Son,’ NFL Reggiee’s flow is top-grade. He quickly jumps from bar to bar with a particular punch in his voice that adds an element you just have to hear to understand.
…I just felt that it should be called ‘Shalonda’s Son’ because at the end of the day that’s who I am, I am my mother’s child – NFL Reggiee.
To close out the project, NFL Reggiee throws a heater at you, carrying a different vibe than the other songs on the project. ‘No Auto‘ is a banger, and NFL Reggiee raps with aggression that fuels your soul as you listen. The one-and-a-half-minute track starts out slow. But, as soon as the bass kicks, NFL Reggiee punches your eardrums with a flow like Comethazine.
