Rocko

<a href="/profile/Rocko" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Rocko</a> surprised fans today with a new mixtape, Poet, which is dedicated to Maya Angelou who passed away yesterday.<a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/maya-angelou-passes-away-at-86-years-old-artists-react-news.10703.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> Angelou&#8217;s death, at the age of 86, had rappers tweeting all day, </a>but Rocko decided to step things up with a selection of socially conscious records. Apparently the music has been in the works for a few months, but with Angelou&#8217;s passing Rocko decided it was the right time to drop it. The music that accompanies the topics also takes a different direction than we&#8217;re used to hearing from Rocko.
&#8220;Hustle&#8221; in particular has <a href="/profile/Nas" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Nas</a> and Rocko spitting about life injustices (police corruption etc) and how come there is need for a hustle.

Let us know if you&#8217;re digging this side of Rocko. &#8220;Hustle&#8221; is a far cry from Rocko&#8217;s recent<a href="http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/rocko-good-feat-lil-wayne-prod-by-tm88-new-song.1901586.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> &#8220;Good&#8221; </a>collabo with <a href="/profile/LilWayne" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Lil Wayne</a>.
Quotable Lyrics
Under surveillance, gotta pay another bailiff Got spray another Mack, ducking all these bullets hailing It&#8217;s not enough crack heads like it used to be Unless you selling bricks, you ain&#8217;t seeing Gs Gotta bust a script real quick, pills or lean Get whatever from a pharmacy It&#8217;s either that or a robbery Catch a nigga shining, book his punk ass You know the look on our faces when we want cash
-Nas
