Torae and Marco Polo, "More Dainja"

Torae and Marco Polo have returned with the second release from their anticipated forthcoming album, Midnight Run. On “More Dainja" Torae gets right to it, presenting a solid case for why he's respected as a gifted, perceptive lyricist, rhyming: "“None of these rappers are my homies, most are two-faced and phony..." before offering, “Gon’ be a cold day in hell to find another this real / Ask them if they bars up, they’ll probably gon’ check on their cell / If I write it, I recite it or I got it for sale, that’ll cover the house note, fuck the XXL / My vibe’s so Quincy, I ain’t come here to fail / Guess The Source material is too real / Used to dream of five mics until I seen it required price / Y’all don’t hear me though, y’all out DM’ing buying likes…” The track follows the lead single "The Return."

"It’s been 14 years since I’ve released an album with Marco Polo," Torae previously told Rock The Bells. "The people have been asking nonstop and it just feels like now is a perfect time. This lead record “The Return” is a great representation of what to expect from the full project. The track knocks, the bars and delivery go hard and I can’t wait to get back on stage with this energy."

Midnight Run arrives on September 22. Listen here.
