Music: Erk Tha Jerk–”Reach The Top (ft. J. Myers)

November 11, 2010 by deadendhiphop

Following the release of his debut album, Nerd’s Eye View, Erk Tha Jerk has decided to release this track for you to get a better feel for his story.  “Reach The Top (ft. J. Myers)” is a track that offers insight into his story.

“I wanted people to hear a detailed description of my story,” says Erk, who also produces and directs his own videos. “Where I came from – not the streets, but growing up as a kid; what the neighborhood looked like and how that helped shape me.”

“I am straight from the bottom/ The struggle, it’s not a problem/ New Jordan’s, I never got ’em/ My momma couldn’t afford ’em/ My father was talking mortgage/ 16, I started wilding,” and “Knew I was gonna shine even when my girl didn’t/ And look y’all, it’s happening just like Gerald said it/ So to my city, I’m just trying to put you on.”

Erk Tha Jerk was recently featured in XXL Magazine’s Show & Prove. Check the feature out below.
