Russ is the definition of a grinder. The Secaucus, New Jersey born rapper and singer is someone we talk about quite often here on the HNHH site because of his all gas and no brakes mentality. You can almost always count on him to drop a single at least once a month, sometimes twice, and a project of some sort every year. Russ could not go the entirety of February without giving us something, so he is here with "In The Dirt."
His last effort "Drives" was about a relationship that was all sorts of complicated and messy. While it shows how versatile Russ is topically, it just did not work for us. However, "In The Dirt" is more or less a return to form for the Georgia resident. He gets back into his speedier rapping back and the message feels more profound here.

Listen To "In The Dirt" By Russ
Russ is dealing with some mental stability while having a hard time controlling his life. In the opening lines he explains, "But uh, I had to get my head right, man, for real, for real / Take back control (Yeah) / I don't think a lot of us realize the negative patterns that we get ourselves into, and uh / We're the only ones that can pull ourselves out, you feel me?" That theme carries out the rest of the way and it leads to some simple yet effective writing.

Quotable Lyrics:
Victory's subjеctive in this game, it's a f****n' contest
Everybody's brainwashed, we ain't on the same time but look up at the same clock
Different destinations, but we get off at the same stop
Everyone confused, we don't know how we ended up where we at
But we refuse to take accountability for the mindset that we choose
We forgot to lock the door, the devil's takin' off his shoes
