OG Penguin Cry CD Review

BY JAMES MCQUISTON 2015FEATURES, MUSIC REVIEWS

Life Fight is a dense track that will yield additional twists and turns with each subsequent listen. OG Penguin’s flow during this track links together 2 Chainz, Killer Mike, and Danny Brown into something that is streetworthy while having enough in the way of hooks to keep listeners firmly at the edges of their seats. Say Yea has a slower, Kid Cudi contemplative feel to the effort that creates dynamic tension, standing on its own even as it showcases another side to OG Penguin’s story.

One Deep blends together the slower and quicker styles broached by OG Penguin and ties them up with a beat that keeps things dark and dank. No matter where someone is at on Cry, OG Penguin will be able to create something that is surprisingly and completely out of left field. His talent as a rapper is high enough that the disparate flows, styles, and sounds heard on this album work towards a single, unified goal. Few rap albums are able to remain strong from beginning to end, but there is a narrative crafted on Cry that is as rich as an episode of Empire or an early 8Ball and MJG album.

OG Penguin has made an album in Cry that bangs throughout and will hold up through repeat listens.

OG Penguin To Release New Album “CRY”

Rising rap artist OG Penguin, born in New Orleans, LA, and raised in the inner city of San Antonio, TX. delivery soulful coarse, raspy vocals, and spits fire gangsta rap tales over dramatic piano riffs, smooth electric chords and infectious hooks, with knocking bass rhythm produced by the up and coming underground sensation CSK, Gutta Beats Juggn,WaxxTaxx and OG Penguin (himself).

OG Penguin brings this formula to the masses on his upcoming LP, "CRY" Distributed thru P.M.G./The Orchard/Sony Music Entertainment (available soon nationwide and on Spotify, iTunes, Amazon and all the major online retailers soon).

The aspiring and dynamic artist will give you a taste of what his forthcoming LP will sound like with the release of his first single "LIFE FIGHT" ( this is a grueling listen, but it's raw dark emotion contrasts well with the comparatively light melodic backing, and is compelling from start to finish) . lead singles include the provocative hypnotic word play,soothing and refreshing strings and overall vibe of "Say Yhea".Then you have "I Know Michael Jordan Bitch" which OG reveals a secret encounter with a very specific NBA star's mistress over an insatiably hot bass rumbling track.

"CRY" is a 14-track LP packed with raw rhymes and crisp, soulful production.

OG Penguin is not one to hide behind, or need a bunch of featured artists,But their are a few. He punches his charismatic persona throughout the new LP telling gripping tales of hard knocks and carrying on through tough times.Violence, hustling and ghetto tales are told in vivid fashion. Even revealing his own story.

If your new to OG Penguin, He sounds like a seasoned Master P., meets young SCARFACE with a twist of Project Pat riding over Three Six

Mafia slash Brotha Lynch Hung tracks with a blend of his own unique sexy rock star image. It connects tightly.The production is crisp, with a variety of sounds to keep heads nodding. OG Penguin should find he follows in the footsteps of his rap heroes and grab major success with "CRY"
