The Canadian underground rap scene has been rapidly producing outstanding alternative hip-hop talents, Peterborough’s Luqman being the latest of such promising singers. Being fueled by pure music-madness and believing that music is most powerful when it serves to transform and heal, the talented independent artist announced his energetic new single titled “Running It UP”. For the young creator, the studio is a place above all to let go of emotions, heal, and raise the bar for his local underground scene.
Right from the beginning, the track instantly strikes you with a recognizable, high-octane motivational chorus, perfectly complimented by the clever production which showcases some of the finest techniques in the game. The piece features a spectacular flute intro, adding a special touch of freshness needed in such a high-energy composition. With a powerful trap drum hitting the floor like a hammer, Luqman’s single becomes a real powerful affair with a huge bass serving as a solid low-end foundation. The masterfully employed trap drums sound extremely aggressive and upfront throughout the composition, providing a perfect energetic platform for the featured singer to showcase his remarkable flow and highlight his amazing catchiest chorus. Luqman’s vocals feel powerful and full of energy as he effortlessly unleashes his aggressive and straight to the point style full of positivity and strength on the listener.
We really enjoyed the solid production value provided for the track. Together with the amazing flute sample and trap drums, Luqman’s powerful and memorable flow makes for a great piece to turn the volume up for.
