Friends who are familiar with Pharaoh's music works should have an impression of some of the time and age in his songs, such as "October 11, 2013, I vowed to be one of the strongest ten rappers" in "I Think" and "I am 23 years old this year but I am not tired." This time, on his 30th birthday, Pharaoh released his new song "The Unemployed Vagrant of Thirty Years Old", which mentioned "30 years old" countless times.
For the Pharaoh, what he yearned for the most was "true freedom". So, there were these weird attempts in the title - dyeing hair in five colors, nailing the face, driving a RV and traveling... In addition, he also wanted to join the sports group and become a voice actor. He has always wanted to be a rapper, but he is also very concerned about his rap career.
Just two months after the release of "The Low Tide" in August, the Pharaoh handed over another Mixtape called "The Horseman". This Mixtape mainly cooperates with elf , and also includes Ryuki and Danny K's friendship helps, and the Hook lineup is even more luxurious. There are Pharaoh's golden partner Lingfeng, old friends Genius and Wei Binyue, "good sister" Adhawa , MC from the golden age dirty, and even the most popular newcomer KKECHO this year...
double-person Mixtape format has appeared in the Chinese rap circle more than once. Wang Yie and Aire won the 2021 Chinese rap Best Album Award for "The Survivor's Sense of Condemnation". Subsequently, Fei Bao and Shou Heng, who came from the spirit, also tried "Tu Di" and received a good response. This time, the Pharaoh and the elves who have known each other for nearly ten years have worked together, and they also hope to bring excellent works to the audience.
"The Strongest" Mixtape is a brand new attempt by the Pharaoh outside the official album "The Low Tide". Compared to "The Empty Tide" that requires consideration of the overall structure of the album and the seriousness of the theme expression, Pharaoh did not completely let himself go and make music happily in "The Empty Tide", but in "The Hsing Tide", Pharaoh could let go of the music style he wanted to make.
So this Mixtape is destined to be not a Mixtape that can be accepted by everyone. Some songs may be "dissuaded from the way" even by fans. However, due to the diverse styles, there will definitely be excellent works with good reputations, such as "The Magic Old Man" and "The Thirty-year-old Unemployed Vagrant". The following is a detailed analysis and interpretation of each song.
Track 01 - "Hardcore"
"They are playing something very new", this is the only evaluation I can give after listening to this song. It must be said that this song is unique, but it is also too advanced. Most people should listen to it once. It is difficult to loop through the song, but it is not a bad attempt.
It is worth mentioning that in this song, the pharaoh's quick-mouth Verse may be the most hard-core in recent years, and it is rare to be fast. It is estimated that a small section reached 10 words per second (5 seconds in duration). The average speed of all the lyrics of Pharaoh's own lyrics reached 8.730 words per second, which can also rank second among all his songs (the first is 8.923 words per second in "The Death 3.0"), and he is worthy of being a sport.
