Siege Spitfire - Shook Ones Freestyle

By the time Eight Mile dropped, this beat was getting so played you really had to have some skills to rock over it. With P gone now, it's only a select few who can get theirs on this. Siege Spitfire does the honors.

Siege Spitfire - "Practice"

"Not cocky, a little bit, little inconsiderate / I could read minds, they illiterate / I don't got time to remind my illegitimate children when I rhyme that I'm killing it."

If this is "Practice" for Sage Spitfire, then you can imagine what game time is like.

As you can tell from the cover art, "Practice" comes from The Kindling EP, which I believe dropped back in 2012 or so. For something more current, check out 2015's Triangle Overnight EP.

Siege Spitfire - Triangle Overnight

Hailing from Brentwood, Siege Spitfire is an alum of NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music. This EP, which he calls "the culmination of years of studying the greats," dropped back in August on Siege's label, Laureate Records. Much more than mere academic exercise, Triangle Overnight delivers angsty punchline-driven MCing over lush production by ADOTHEGOD and Big Cat. Stream below; download via iTunes.
