3 min read
Ruben Page is back again with a new song titled “No Harm” which talks about Urban Life. Now if this is your first time hearing the name “Ruben Page” then let me give you a brief backstory. Having spent 7 years in the music industry, he’s no rookie when it comes to Hip Hop, he’s an OG who makes music just for the love of the game and for those 7 years he’s been constantly working on improving and polishing his wordplay and storytelling to perfection and that is what we hear in his new song “No Harm”.
As soon as the song starts you’ll know he has indeed spent a long time making music because how he rhymes, his wordplay and his flow are all flawless and a perfect 10/10. He talks about “Mary Poppins” and “Blunt-smoking suburban girls” and that’s when you know what he’s talking about is real as he continues to talk about the challenges and difficulties in growing up in such environments as the urban life isn’t all that good as you might think. Sometimes people don’t get it when you tell em it’s not that easy in the cities like the media portrays it to be, then they be like you lying to them, till they experience that shit themselves they ain’t gonna believe you, but Reben page here sheds light on it perfectly and make it know how difficult it is to make it out. Life in the city is not all that glittering, sometimes you’d be hit soo hard with adversities that will break you down and let you resort to all sort of shady stuffs. But that shouldn’t pull you down, strive to have a taste of success, keep digging and keep hustling, don’t let those problems hinder you from reaching your goals, no matter what may happen. What’s lovely about the song is how it starts, wow, just like that you have one of the smoothest entry to a song, flowing right from the start along with the beats is magnificent. Then the beats, wow, soo intriguing and very refined, it keeps you knocking your head and keeping to the flow and delivery of the song while making the message of the song very clear. Now that’s how you tell the world you’re no newcomer in the music industry and that’s how you make your statement.
