Keep Right

Ohio lyricist Keep Right releases new motivating track titled “Bubble Up Economics.” Through prolific lyrics he delivers authentic storytelling about his life and come up. This is no fairy tale, the heavyweight drops explicit yet relatable bars reminding us it’s not where we been but where we’re going. It’s not about the crimes committed but the lessons and growth. Right is an open book eager to share his pages with listeners. The soulful soundscapes and tones arranged by Allrounda heighten the emotion expressed by Right. - MJ Savino

ast-Coast hip-hop artist Keep Right is from a small town, but he has big ambitions. Raised without a father around, he had a rough start. An intelligent student, Keep Right wasn’t focused to school and often found himself getting into trouble and feeling like something was missing. Inspired by role models in music, Keep started writing rhymes and soon he had a secret collection, a stack of notebooks filled with flows. By 16, he started recording original material and the positive feedback from his peers fueled him forward. Over the next few years, despite all the talent pouring out him, Keep was still in and out of trouble and trying to find his path. He lacked the guidance he needed, but eventually he found his calling in hip hop and began to spread his message through music. Today Keep Right is growing his audience and gaining national attention. A great way to introduce yourself to this rapper's sound, which is fused with intelligent lyricism and great production, is to check out his latest single, “Step Back”



“Step Back” opens with a nice soulful guitar lick. The track is soaked in R & B overtones with leads, a fat bass and rolling percussion. The sound is lit with a laid back groove that will get you hooked. Kudos to producer Chysty Productionz for injecting some old school elements into the mix which will draw a wide audience. Keep Right enters the mix with sheer confidence—his flow easily cuts through the thick mix with a clear mission - “I came in the game like a young Frank Lindor.”


Keep Right tackles a wide range of experiences with sharp lyrics that flow from a place that is raw and genuine. He talks about social issues and channels his life through his music and rhyme like it’s water running through his veins. Each verse is filled to the brim with observation, “Fuck you with your opioid epidemic. I get charged with a crime. Why don’t you charge the clinic? Addiction ain’t a disease, its white privilege. “



One key to Keep Right is that he looks both outwards in observation and inwards towards self-reflection. “I’m way too nefariousness to kill my heritage, genes I inherited.” He goes on to talk about hard work and perfectionism which is heard in his craft and his loyalty to his roots.



We started out stating that Keep Right was in and out of trouble, but had found his path in hip hop, inspired by his mentors, and meaningful lyrics - his latest single “Step Back” proves that Keep Right is on the right path, going in the right direction, and doing right by hip hop. He is where he should be, speaking his truth, yielding a message worth listening to against a mix that packs a lot of soul - both lyrically and musically.

Ohio emcee Keep Right gets a little personal all the while dropping jewels for the masses on “The Maze”. Produced soulfully by the mind of Chysty Productions, the spirit of nineties Hip Hop lives thru the four minute plus tune, - GetYourBuzzUp

With a beat that sounds like it was ripped from a YouTube video entitled “J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League Type Beat,” this song never quite takes off because the instrument and drum sounds don’t provide the necessary depth to feel authentic. For his part, Keep Right raps confidently on beat, but has a hard time keeping things interesting with an uninspired chorus that continuously interrupts the song’s momentum. Going forward, Keep Right should build on his strengths by investing in some quality VSTs and focusing on more dynamic songwriting. - DJBOOTH

New SOTBMusic: Ohio's Keep Right Introduces Some Bubble Up Economics on New (to Me) Track

I happened upon Ohio rapper Keep Right--who has a pretty cool stage name, if you ask me--through a Twitter conversation about artist submissions. Being the type of dude I am (one who's always looking for new music to talk about/listen to), I asked him to link me to his latest track. That song, "Bubble Up Economics," has a kind of Freeway meets Ghostface feel to it. That's probably partly due to the soul sample-esque production from ALLROUNDA Beats. Well, that and the fact that there's a calm aggression to the motivational lyrics Right's spitting on this one.

It'd be easy to say "oh, this is just a struggle rap track." One, eff that. All rap has a struggle to it. Otherwise, we wouldn't get as much beautiful music as we do from the genre. Two, in saying something like that, you're dismissing the hell out of this brother's story. Three, in saying that, you're ignoring the fact that there are some pretty sweet lines in this one. - Speed On The Beat
