There are a lot of different perspectives in Hip Hop right now from Young Thug to Isaiah Rashad releasing projects within the past few weeks ranging across the spectrum of the genre.
R.E.A.L. Tha Poet adds his voice to the conversation with his latest release, Learn on the Fly. The 11-track project from the Lexington rapper explores spirituality, ambition and relationships. Voiceover from President Barack Obama on the opening track “Run!” collides with folk and rock influences on “Spittin’ Venom.” Production comes from Jake “J-Ideas” Drescher.
Learn on the Fly is released through Urban Creek Media, which R.E.A.L. helped found in 2013 with J-Ideas and Brandon Jones.
