RageMD is a medical student and hip-hop artist from Toronto, Canada. With a style that fuses old school vibes and modern urban edginess, he brings us his latest single, “November” (prod.by Roswell), from which all proceeds will go to ‘Autism Speaks’. The very first thing any listener will notice is that the man simply has a knack for crafting terrific hooks.
His verse are certainly not trying to be Shakespearian poetry, but boast fantastic hooks that craft his storytelling perfectly. RageMD can seem genuinely charming in his unique sort of way, with “November” being a perfect example of that. He has a personalized flow and complex rhyme scheme, which he switches up and down to great effect.
RageMD’s winning formula of an infectious hook and melody along with energetic rapping exists in the DNA of his music. The ability to create catchy songs show that he knows his lane is somewhere between slow to fast serenading and turn up tunes. He weaves between these two intersections, in a song is mid-tempo in beat, but pretty racy in vocal delivery, and fun through and through.
The sway the song mirrors in style and production goes beyond its apparent trap aesthetic. It’s a cohesive listening experience. RageMD Sounds like he is in his comfort zone all the way through, no matter which tempo his rapping is set at.
The song will get stuck in your head, like anything that’s catchy, and the RageMD effect will cause your feet to tap, your shoulders to shimmy, your head to nod, and a note or two might even arise from your lips.
Only time will tell if he can put together a streak of more potential catchy songs like this one, but “November” is a reassuring reminder that he isn’t just making songs and praying for this to happen, RageMD seems to know what works, he knows what the people want. They want catchy, and this song has plenty of catchy.
Together with that he throws in a more than original rapping style and voice, as well as the ability to deliver technically perfect barrages of wordy verses that would be more than a mouthful for lesser talents!
