Brooklyn meets Philadelphia on Jahlil Beats laced "Have Mercy." NYC's Manolo Rose has been buzzing for a minute, and the Warehouse Music Group artist teams up with Philadelphia Freeway for this rugged and raw track. It's safe to say that The Roc is officially in the building, with perpetually bearded Freeway's first verse as a Roc Nation artist setting things off. Dynamic drums and synth pads are the playground for both emcees, and the off kilter chorus evokes memories of the late ODB with a deliberately sloppy half-shouting delivery. Manolo's mic presence is formidable, proving himself a worthy addition to the ever-expanding roster of Brooklyn talent.

Quotable Lyrics

The irony we handle robberies with iron-e 
Pray to the east in the hood they call me Iron Shiek
All I do is stay quiet let the iron speak
Trips to Saudi feds eyein' me a lotta weeks
