T.O.A.K

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

T.O.A.K (Test Of A King) in his Exclusive Phone Interview with Str8outdaden.com

In his first phone interview, T.O.A.K speaks with J. Good, creator of Str8outdaden.com Hip Hop blog.

"We traveled to Pittsburgh (well not literally) for our latest phone interview. This time we chopped it up with an emcee by the name of T.O.A.K. (Test Of A King). He broke down the meaning of his name, told us why he chose to rap, the goal behind his No Time EP and more. Plus he dropped a freestyle so dope that I had to stop him mid way through (Spoiler Alert I guess). Any way I had a good time getting to know this dude and be on the look out for the 3 projects he’s planning to release soon. So you know the drill…sit back…Relax and Listen!"

New Music: T.O.A.K - PTI (Pardon The Interruption) Freestyle

I was noticing a lot of artists talk about the moves they were making, how they are the "best" out etc etc...So I decided to do this freestyle called "PTI (Pardon The Interruption)" over Kendrick Lamar's record "Compton" Prod. By Just Blaze, just to cut in and let my flow speak for itself!

Music Update: T.O.A.K (Test Of A King) will be releasing a New Freestyle on Wednesday, July 24th 2013 called "PTI" (Pardon The Interruption). This Freestyle is over Kendrick Lamar's "Compton" Prod. By Just Blaze

Just some added motivation for the day and for your aspirations. I hope you can take something out of this interview that can be beneficial/influential towards your progress and your success like I did.

Thoughts of the next song I should do a freestyle over.

How about J. Cole's "Power Trip"??

I definitely have a lot of respect for J. Cole and his music. Especially his song "Power Trip". The content of the song definitely hits home for me. I've probably listened to it every day since the first time I heard it. I never thought to write a freestyle to it, even though it made me think of a similar situation going on with me that the song describes. But, my boy Qwan gave me the idea just yesterday, and I said, "ok".  Now, my freestyle will discuss a similar situation like the one described in the original song, but with a little twist.  I'll also be singing the hook. Now, like I said in my first sentence, I have a lot of respect for J. Cole and his music, with that being said, I want to make sure I do this song justice as well as he did, but especially because I respect good quality music and I would never want to make/settle for anything less.

So stay tuned, because I already have half of the song finished!

The Leak: T.O.A.K’s “Welcome to the Lion’s Den”

Posted on April 11, 2013 by Admin — No Comments ↓

1 Vote

“Welcome to the Lion’s Den” is a leak from T.O.A.K.’s debut mixtape “Test Of A King: The Mixtape.” It was produced by DJ Naydee of Beatsplanet.com. A raw song that displays my lyrical ability, expressing my around the clock work ethic to grind with my music, that anything less than around the clock isn’t going to get it done. It also expresses where I’m from, where I’ve been, and where I am going.

Get to know the artist T.O.A.K:

I go by the name of “T.O.A.K” (Pronounced Toke), stands for Test Of A King. I’m a hip hop artist from Baltimore, MD, but I’m currently in Pittsburgh, PA. I’m a new artist that actually just started doing music July of 2012, all from a blessing in disguise of me breaking my leg during my last arena football game, April 27, 2012. While recovering from this injury, I picked up a pencil and pad, started my music career on July 2012, and I haven’t stopped since. I have a versatile style with comparisons of J.Cole, Drake, Wale, and Tito Lopez. I definitely appreciate the opportunity to have my music posted on Reppghhiphop, especially being that I live in Pittsburgh.
