Underground Hip Hop Artist Al Nino

Real recognizes real. Coldest Summer by Al Nino-  This is a deep and very personal track, but I still want to draw attention to it. Coldest Summer Ever was written and performed by underground Canadian rapper Al Nino. This track is a tribute to one of Al Nino's close friends who passed away. It tells a deep and emotional story, detailing the period before, during and after Al Nino's loss. Songs like this are something the underground hip hop world must respect and be proud of. Al Nino pours his emotion out on this track and brings a level of realism to his lyrics in this song that is rarely heard. It is much easier to get noticed as an underground MC if the rapper writes lyrics with only popularity and commercialism in mind; but an MC that shows their true colors within their work is the artist that deserves the recognition and respect! For this reason I wanted to showcase this track and give everyone a chance to listen to something so real it's rare. I also think this track is a great reminder to EVERYONE that life is short and friends and family are the most important things we have; far above money, fame, cars or all of the other things rap sometimes is nearly polluted with. So take a minute today to check out this track and a few more minutes to cherish the important people in your life! Life is short yet sweet, just like a good song.
