“Salimos desde morros para el barrio / Tuvimos que hacerlo porque era necesario / Mi vida plasmada en un escenario / Siempre a full así me verás de a diario.” Ooh-wee! Chicago-born rapper-producer Toser One tapped buff (understatement) Mexican rapper Faruz Feet for one helluva banger with “Era Necesario”.  With this particular record featuring a Spanish title, and performed exclusively in Spanish, era has a different meaning. Era necesario translates to English as It was necessary to. “Era Necesario” thrives on its malicious-sounding, minor-key backdrop. Following the pre-chorus (excerpted above), the chorus is catchy and unforgettable:

“Todos venimos de un Ghetto [We all come from a Ghetto]

Pero a la hora de la hora ¿quién se va a fajar? [But when it comes down to it, who’s going to fight?]

Unos te muestran respeto [Some show you respect]

Y son los mismos que van a pelear por verte algún día bajar.” [And they are the same ones who will fight to see you come down someday.]

I love the attitude and energy that both Toser One and Faruz Feet bring to the track.  They bring an ill cadence and flow over this laid-back but energetic instrumental. Faruz Feet performs the first verse, notably referencing himself: “Le llaman Faruz Feet / Dicen que anda en condiciones / Lo que comentan todos cuando llego al party son / ¿Que, tú que?” In the second verse, I loved the fast-paced rhymes by Toser One (“Yo lo he ganado los huevos me pesan / Yo sé que todos esos me la besan / Se tropiezan y empiezan yo no sé qué chingados piensan / Con poquito que vieron se fueron y no regresan”). Woo! By the way, chingados translates as the charming curse word, fuckers.  Beautiful! Even if you understand little or no Spanish, the energy exhibited by “Era Necesario” is nothing short of electrifying – ¡jodidamente impresionante!
