Song of the Week: Skillz – “2008 Rap Up”

skillz This is one of those songs that most of the Hip-Hop world looks for every year. I didn’t think that Skillz was going to make one this year, but he did. He did it big last year with a video, I wonder if he’ll do the same this year. Skillz is a talented artist who ghostwrites for a lot of artists. Its a shame that he might never break over into the mainstream. But some people don’t need the limelight to shine. This is the one time of the year when all heads are checking for Skillz. So instead of worrying about being boxed in for doing these type of songs, he should embrace it, and roll with the punches. Some people don’t get noticed at all, and people actually wait to see how Skillz will do the “Rap Up” and flip everything that happened in the year. The songs are always dope (some people might disagree) but he is the only one that does it. So sit back and enjoy the last installment of Song of the Week for the year 2008! We might have another post for you guys before the year’s out. If not…WE’LL SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!

      I’m not hating. But lets be real, we all pull for Skillz but he gets WAY more attention for 1 song all year than his album. I bet a lot of people don’t know he had an album this year but was looking forward to his “Rap Up”. Real talk.

    hahaaa this shits great, not as good as ’07s but still dope

  7. mufucka says:

    He has a year to write his rap up and this is it? I’m not trying to hate, but it was weak. It gets worse each year.

  8. SBK says:

    Ay yeah, I’ve been definitely waiting for Skillz’s annual end of the year “Rap Up”. This is something that I always look forward to at the end of the year. This “2008 Rap-Up” was pretty good as usual and it’s always funny. I always get a laugh out of this song especially the Pop Champagne line in this one (we in a recession muh’fuckers, y’all ain’t poppin’ shit). Good shit though with this one, I gotta get the full version to download.
