agoraphobia Download: Micah James   agoraphobia

This is a nice 17 track demo/album release that was sent to me from the man himself, Micah James. I had never heard of Micah, but decided to give the joint a spin in any case. I was pleasantly surprised to hear some very unique delivery and wordplay, instead of the usual cookie cutter Myspace rapper. He has some excellent production on the project as well from Bombay and Ro Blvd. I suggest you check agoraphobia or hit him up on his Myspace link below.

Reyn: What’s up Cy? Thanks for answering some questions with us. Who is Cymarshall Law?
Cy:  Cymarshall Law? A Sun, A Father, A Brother, Lover, Fighter, Freedom Writer and Not A Rapper, I’m an M.C.  A New Jersey representer, Mr. Hip Hop in the Soul formerly Flesh, I am Hip Hop, and it’s nice to make your acquaintance.

Reyn: Your newest joint with Mr. Joeker, Hip Hop In The Soul, has been out for a little bit now. Are you happy with the fans’ reception of the album so far?
Cy: Yes mos def this looks to be the album that will bring me around the world, the people are really loving it and I’m getting a lot of exciting new opportunities because of it.  More people, artists I grew up listening to want to work with me because they heard the album. I’m happy about that to say the least. Some heads are still not behind me fully and I think it’s a shame they wait to jump on the bandwagon and won’t just listen for what’s dope, because Hip Hop started out with you had to be different and original to make a mark, you had to be fresh. Now, it’s about who you know, so because I’m fairly new I’m still going through some people not accepting because they are unfamiliar with the work and people usually take longer to accept what they don’t know about it. It’s cool, it’s expected, but overall the response has been brilliant.
