He talks about his childhood, growing up in the North Bronx, French Montana’s new album, his music, the “Subway Series” track with 360, the upcoming mixtape with Omen, definition of success, his latest track “Bishop” and more.

Fresh off the release of his DJ Drama-hosted Porter’s Pot mixtape*, Denzil Porter takes it back to his Truman High School days of battling folks on the uptown 5 train.

* The tape dropped during my time w/o internet in NYC. So, I’ve included it after the jump.

Denzil Porter – Heavy Rain

Third single off Denzil upcoming project, Porter’s Pot, due out this November.

“Heavy Rain” touches on the real stories and despair of Denzil’s brother Donald and two of his childhood friends Stephen and Sunny, who were all locked up unfairly. It was written by Denzil Porter after receiving a letter from Sunny with proof of his innocence. “Heavy Rain” is relatable to so many people because unfortunately, this is reality. Innocent people are locked up all the time from false accusations and receive unfair treatment once inside the system, ultimately trapping them for a much longer time than projected. When telling Stephen’s story, who has been locked up for almost three years with no trial, Denzil raps, “I don’t know ’bout the time I’m facing, or even why I’m still here/Caught a couple extra cases, I don’t even drink beer”.
