Demetrie Jones’ If the Shoe Fits… is a sharp, introspective dive into life’s unfiltered truths, delivered with the precision of a seasoned wordsmith. The track leans heavily into the essence of boom bap and old-school hip-hop, allowing the gritty, jazz-infused production to amplify Jones’ intricate lyricism. This isn’t just music for a quick listen; it’s a challenge to reflect, understand, and grow.
A product of Oakland’s cultural richness and the Central Valley’s grind, Demetrie Jones (formerly known as Urban The Element) has been a fixture in West Coast hip-hop for years. From battle rap victories in leagues like Power and Respect to collaborations within the Wave Makers Collective, Jones brings a rare authenticity to every verse. Whether addressing mental health, identity, or personal battles, his words resonate with an unapologetic truth. As one-half of the hip-hop duo Odd Members of Society, he continues to honor the legacy of storytelling in rap, and If the Shoe Fits… is yet another testament to his evolving craft.
