Listen to the Leak of “Truthful Lie” by Lyricks x Vincent Lacsamana

Given Lyricks penchant for working with local artists to the Northern Virginia area, it’s a wonder why we haven’t heard a collabo from him and Vincent Lacsamana earlier. But luckily, that omission has been rectified with the streaming leak of “Truthful Lie”. It’s kind of refreshing to hear Ly take a step from the boom bap and do a quick cross over to the smooth raps. Not sure how long this one will be up, so be sure to check this out while it’s still available for stream. If the song sounds familiar, it’s because it’s been reworked from the original version we heard almost a year ago.

Showdown: Megan Lee x Gerald Ko vs Vincent Lacsamana

In a little bout of East vs West we have a Showdown of covers by veteran Youtubers Megan Lee & Gerald Ko against a bit of a new comer from the East – Vincent Lacsamana. The song in contention is “Count on Me” by Bruno Mars off his It’s Better If You Don’t Understand EP. Both covers made use of the acoustic guitar and are somewhat similar in style but definitely different in flavor. So whose rendition did you prefer? Megan & Gerald’s sweet, gentle charm or Vincent’s solo pop/r&b charisma? Vote!
