Luxury Dutch is a MC from Far Rockaway, NY, who’s inspired by his “daughter and real life pain”. And this comes across truly and rawly in his track ‘Faded Too Long’. Over an infectious, soulful, almost mournful beat, Luxury Dutch presents a monologue – no hook, no chorus – with the smoothest of deliveries; it flow’s simple, elegant, spoken in a way that makes you want to listen because he’s speaking to you. Luxury Dutch has a mixtape dropping this month, and I’ll be keeping an eye out on the social networks for this one.

If you want a little more, go peep this freestyle; it’s straight FIRE.
