about

Tyrone releases the single and video for “Work Boots”; for the last quarter of 2013 music season. After the success of his last release the chart topper; “Paradise”, the artist dubbed, “The Working Class Hero” decided to show his diversity by releasing a song that moves in an entirely different direction. The hardcore beat with the chain gang chanting, drives the lyricist to a delivery that is unique and melodic. An ode to hard work, consistency and ethics, Tyrone lets the listener understand that he's from the same circumstances as the; “coke”, “thug”, and “gangsta” rapper, but his willingness to make different choices changed the environment and outlook of the artist. “I ain't never sold dope but I’m from the hood, ain’t never shot nobody but I definitely could, squares and straps wish a ni**a would, I keeps it ghetto and gangsta don’t get misunderstood..”. The piano riff welcomes the hook; “fresh to death, right down to my work boots”, and presents a bold approach to inner city living without using the tired product of my environment cliché.
