Tobe Nwigwe feat Lil Keke - Purple Rain Thing (Single)

The enigmatic Tobe Nwigwe is back with another purply playful visual with the Lil Keke assisted “PURPLE RAIN THING,” channeling an inner Prince influence with how he’s almost whispering his whimsical lines to you as they whisk away. It becomes one with the wind on how smoothly it flows out of him but overproduction with this subdued & almost avant-garde record still banging on all decibels as it leaks out that lean based drip through your speaker system.

He’s so nimble when he speaks his truth to power, all while representing Houston to its fullest. Fitting that he’s rhyming like a Sensei & taking on that title with prowess, standing tall as a leader & peeping game from an OG once he comes in with such gusto, you can’t help but feel winded once they’re done spitting with such bounce in their precision.

Tobe puts a whole new spin on the tales he tells, all of which are grittily harsh realities that spawned the man we hear today. You can find more of these fantastical art pieces derived from his pain & struggle on his “CINCOORIGINALS” project from which this latest number is from. He’s an artist that you won’t be able to keep your eyes from noticing his worldly greatness.
