<\/figure>\nWe all have goals, be it financially, or in our personal lives. It is, however, in the execution that the majority of us struggle. But, with a clear focus, everything can begin to fall in place, as has been the case for Brandon Mitchell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In his new album, Gametime<\/em>, the Kansas City rapper revels in the peace and success that have stemmed from him setting his priorities right. Brandon has found a way to win both at home (he is married with a daughter, to whom he delivers a sentimental ode on the track \u201cBrooklyn\u2019s Song\u201d ) and in business, all while maintaining his spirituality. <\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m An NBA agent now,<\/em>\u201d he announces assertively and triumphantly on the title track (and album opener). Filled with orchestral horns, this song exemplifies masterful storytelling, something that is further highlighted on the textured and emotionally rousing second track, \u201cDirty Dishes\u201d. <\/p>\n \u201cThe stories are already written, just sit and see where it lands it<\/em>\/ A grand and perfect picture being painted on a blank canvas<\/em>\/ One foot after another, ten toes is where I stand it<\/em>\/ Hopefully this visual gives you some understanding<\/em>,\u201d the artist raps over a minimalist production.<\/p>\n Brandon did a brilliant job on track sequencing, each song flowing smoothly onto the next. It\u2019s really amazing how this album shifts in style, with moods ranging from introspective and soulful to playful and laidback. For instance, while \u201cSugar\u201d is a Larry June-esque, lavish song perfect for Sunday afternoons, tracks like \u201cPlays\u201d and \u201cWhat We Doin\u201d are more hard-hitting and quite fun. <\/p>\n Then there are some songs that are simply vibey, \u201cLegendary Elevation\u201d (with Nia Cheri) being one of them. \u201cUntitled Love\u201d, which features the magnificent vocals of Irv Da Phenom, is another of the album\u2019s standouts. <\/p>\n For Brandon, who is first and foremost guided by his Christian faith, being reverent is of utmost importance. He reinforces this in the final two tracks, \u201cTGBNU\u201d and \u201cWe Already Won\u201d. <\/p>\n Altogether, Gametime<\/em> manages to distill the rapper\u2019s life story, which is really an uplifting tale of wins and losses. It is deeply personal but has messages that listeners can carry home. We are reminded to embrace positivity and surround ourselves with people with whom we share love and support.<\/p>\n Overall, Gametime<\/em> is faith-driven but not too self-righteous; it\u2019s a body of work that not only uplifts and inspires, but is also quite captivating musically. <\/p>\n Follow Brandon Mitchell on Instagram<\/a>. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
