J-Live - "Not Listening" (Prod. by Korede)

I nodded my head extra hard listening to what J-Live was spititng on this track because I know the pitfalls he talks about here that rappers/emcees succumb to. Hard to listen to cats that are dope not really saying much. Word up. Peep the track. Hopefully, it inspires them to improve.
