![Joell Ortiz – Seven Deuce [NEW MUSIC]](http://www.birthplacemag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/joell-ortiz-southpaw.jpg)
Joell Ortiz, named one of our “5 Reasons Why New York Hip Hop Doesn’t Suck,” continues to prove why, with the release of “Seven Deuce,” another hard-hitting track that offers the Brooklyn wordsmith just the right vibe for his powerful and clever delivery.
The Jake One-produced “Seven Deuce” is a soulful synth-and-piano affair, with just enough layers to induce heavy head-nodding while giving Ortiz room to spit without getting lost in the mix.
After a flurry of releases last year and work with Slaugherhouse, Joell Ortiz has been reportedly at work on his next mixtape project, The Life And Times Of Sebastian Rios.
Judging by his track record, and this new taste, we fully expect Joell Ortiz to continue his streak of dropping consistency dope material.
