“Grandpa J.o.e.” by Status the Marlboro Man is an Akai MPC produced Boom Bap style Hip Hop track chronicling the life and relationship between Grandson and Grandfather. Italian-American Grandpa Joe and his Godfather-esque persona are detailed endearingly through the eyes of his thankful grandson.

The mysterious melody and heavy drums make heads nod with ease; while Status’s deep voice and delivery paint a picture easily relatable to anyone who had a relationship with their grandparents. Though the subject matter is full of heart and truth, the track itself is as hard hitting as any street anthem or rap-battle track.

Denver Emcee and Producer – Status the Marlboro Man is known for making hard hitting lofi beats with tongue-in-cheek intelligent lyrics. Find this track and more on the Status produced album “IN TIME IT WILL GO: SIDE A” on all digital platforms.
