Philly rapper Young Hitta isn’t just rapping on “Letter 2 My Folks”, he’s speaking straight from the soul. Written, produced, and engineered entirely by the man himself, it’s a deeply personal letter—one laced with gratitude, grief, and a relentless drive to honor those who shaped him. Dedicated to his late mother and grandmother, the song is a testament to resilience, a hand extended to anyone navigating loss, urging them to keep pushing forward.
From the moment the song kicks off, you’re pulled into its shimmering, dreamy soundscape. There’s a softness to the opening, a sense of reflection before the beat drops—and when it does, it hits hard. Young Hitta’s voice, high and effortlessly catchy, dances over the rhythm with a laid-back confidence that makes the whole track impossible to ignore. His flow is smooth yet urgent, weaving through steady bass lines and melodic riffs that keep the energy high without overwhelming the emotion behind his words. There’s something magnetic about the way he delivers each verse—like he’s telling a story meant just for you, yet big enough for anyone to relate to.
The production is tight, polished yet personal, striking that perfect balance between hard-hitting beats and introspective lyricism. The contrast between the shimmering instrumentals and the weight of the words makes “Letter 2 My Folks” feel both deeply emotional and effortlessly listenable.
It’s one of those tracks that sticks with you—not just because of its sound, but because of its heart. Stay tuned with Young Hitta for more meaningful Hip Hop.
