The album REKS has been promising, “The Greatest X” (read: “The Greatest Unknown”), is looking & sounding really promising. Watch REKS flex and give a B.I.G. rhyme concept a stretch. Pure dopeness!

“Jump Shots” is a song that articulates in depth the idea made famous by Biggie Smalls, “either your slingin’ crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot.” Over an infectious head-nodder from Buckwild, assisted by a flawless cuts from Statik Selektah, REKS describes the limited options available to ghetto youth and the parallels between b-ball and Hip-Hop. A die-hard Boston Celtics fan, REKS states, “I actually grew up idolizing the Bad Boys’ Isiah Thomas on the ball court. His grittiness and fearlessness was admirable.”

Welp, consider this Boston’s basketball-meets-boom-bap contribution to the game this season – wicked “Jump Shots” on deck.
