Rep has dropped their resiliently inspiring Rap track “Mighty Men” featuring Tramel, MNPLY and True Justice

Breaking US Rap artist Rep has recently dropped their game-changer of a collaborative EP But He is Strong. While each track is a hit, the standout track Mighty Men contains the inspiring resilience which we all undoubtedly need to hear more of right now.

It’s in the media’s best interest to make things seem bleak. Yet, with Mighty Men, Rep illustrated that in light of current disparity, not everyone is living in fear. There’s something incredibly powerful about hearing the convictive repetition of “I ain’t scared” around intellectually inspired introspection.

The lyrics may be grounding, but ultimately, Mighty Men EP oozes an adrenalizing, empowering energy. Anticipate a smorgasbord of emotions to be invoked when you hit play on the slick and solid contemporary feat of Hip Hop.
