Check Out @Ferlando_Young's "Make It Out "EP

By @itsmanjobruh on 12/06/2021 in Projects You Should Hear

Inspired by one of the songs on the EP., "'Make It Out' is a concept about getting out of my current situation as an upcoming artist. The daily struggles I face and just making it out of the general struggles people face before “making it”.

The first song is titled "With it" and itʼs a fun start to the project, Iʼve always wanted to make a song people can dance to on TikTok and this song has those vibes." The second song is titled “Self Esteem” ft Fluxc Benzo. "On this song Iʼm affirming Iʼm about to be a problem in the industry “This year ain' playing ‘bout these n*gg*s Iʼm hurting their self esteem, might jump in a sonar” Iʼm just letting everyone on notice that we are here now."

The third song is Titled Make it out ft Fluxc Benzo. "This song talks about my relationship between my focus on making it and women in my life, and in a way I have to sacrifice one for the other and right now Iʼm focused on making it out and the dreams I have for myself. I canʼt afford no distractions."

The fourth song is titled: Make It Out Outro, which is more of a freestyle. "I am rapping hard through out detailing how it is where I come from (Pietermaritzburg). The drug problem faced by the youth, the murder rate and the overall hopelessness you feel being from where Iʼm from because “you could have a dream and never make it out”. Everytime I go back home people are always still doing the same thing I left them doing,, hardly any progress as a whole and I Had to make it out from there, now I have to make it out on a bigger scale."

The fifth song is titled “Breaking In” "here Iʼm just explaining my frustration with trying to get inside the music game and since I feel like they wonʼt let me in, I guess Iʼm breaking in". The sixth song is titled “PVT” This song explains how on the journey to “making it out” You only just need one girl who is down for you regardless what her friends or anyone says about you or the journey”.

Seventh song is titled “On my way” featuring Brandon. "This song is just for me to remember the promise I made to my mother about making it out and a reminder to myself that Iʼd rather put my efforts in my craft hourly than work a minimum wage job paying me hourly.""

"The EP as a whole has a melodic Trap feel with hard Trap beats and melodic raps which gives it a smoother feel even tho Iʼm really rapping The songs are all written by myself with Fluxc Benzo featuring on “Self Esteem” and “Make It Out”. The purpose of this EP is to give the game a wake up call about Ferlando Young and the FY movement thatʼs yet to come. I feel like people will like these songs more cause thereʼs a lot to relate to in terms of the subject matter. but also you can afford to just enjoy the vibez of the songs without paying attention to the lyrics, which works well in a club setting or a party where you donʼt have the time to dissect lyrics but just looking to have fun. This is the first project to begin what I call “The FY awakening”" - Ferlando Young.
