Alex Ruffin is a 19 year old MC who, despite his young age,
has what it takes to match and even exceed the skills of most rappers who have
been doing it for years.
I remember coming across his music as I was scrolling
through my Facebook page and seeing a status update mentioning the young MC by
Rap Genius. Declaring anybody the best
lyricists of 2012, especially somebody who is not known by many people, is a
huge statement for someone to live up to.
After hearing his song, “Overdosed on Reality” on YouTube for the first
time ever, I believe that Alex Ruffin has what it takes to be a contender for
the title of “Lyricist of The Year.”
I was immediately impressed by his effortless flow, his
deep-voiced delivery which commanded attention, and the old school atmosphere
that was created by J. Dilla’s instrumental.
After he announced that his second mixtape was coming out
soon, I crossed my fingers hoping that his other songs would be as high quality
as his recent work. After I listened to
U.B.E.R., I was not disappointed.
Be sure to look out for Alex Ruffin’s name in the future,
for he is truly an MC that will soon get the recognition he deserves with hard
work, consistency, and growth in his skills.
Here’s a link to his second mixtape, U.B.E.R.

By the way, Alex Ruffin also has a third mixtape coming out soon. I'll update this post when it comes out.
As always, be sure to support the artists whom you feel
deserves it in any way you can.
