Money Mars "Beast Mode" ft. Fred The Godson is Out Now!

In a nostalgic homage to the golden era of hip hop, Money Mars releases his latest single "Beast Mode," featuring the late Fred The Godson. The track, reminiscent of the gritty yet soulful sound of 90s New York hip hop, brings together two skilled artists over an authentic Boom Bap beat.

"Beast Mode" opens with a head-nodding drum break layered with classic vinyl sample, immediately setting the tone for what's to come. Fred The Godson wastes no time in delivering his trademark flow, blending raw lyricism with a charismatic delivery. His verses are packed with punchlines and clever wordplay, showcasing his lyrical prowess.

What sets "Beast Mode" apart is the seamless chemistry between Money Mars and Fred The Godson. Despite the tragic loss of Fred, his presence on the track is felt profoundly, creating an immersive listening experience that pays homage to his legacy.

The production, stays true to the essence of Boom Bap, with dusty samples and gritty drums driving the track forward. It's a refreshing departure from the glossy, overproduced sound dominating modern hip hop, reminding listeners of the genre's roots.

"Beast Mode" not only celebrates the art of lyricism but also serves as a tribute to the Bronx, the birthplace of hip hop. With its authentic sound and genuine passion, the track captures the essence of New York City's streets, evoking a sense of nostalgia for fans of the genre.

As Money Mars and Fred The Godson trade verses, it's evident that both artists are in their element, showcasing their skills with finesse. Their verses are a testament to the power of hip hop to captivate and inspire, proving that even in an era dominated by trap beats and auto-tuned hooks, there's still a place for the raw, unfiltered sound of Boom Bap.

"Beast Mode" is more than just a song; it's a statement—a declaration of lyrical dominance and a celebration of hip hop in its purest form. With its classic sound and timeless appeal, the track is sure to resonate with fans of authentic hip hop for years to come.


In a world where trends come and go, Money Mars and Fred The Godson remind us that real hip hop never goes out of style. "Beast Mode" is a testament to their talent, passion, and dedication to the craft, ensuring that their legacies will live on in the hearts and minds of hip hop fans everywhere.
