Chicago rhyme sayer, Aris P, is back with a sunny new single just in time for the summer season, “Play It Smart Or Play It Heart.” Featuring Ace Hashimoto (FKA brandUn Deshay), the Kero One produced track sees Aris flexing his lyrical abilities while advocating a life of following your heart instead of overthinking everything.

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/319923044" params="auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true" width="100%" height="450" iframe="true" /]

As he did on “Midnight Blue,” Aris brings the heat on “Play It Smart Or Play It Heart.” His latest single is well crafted and features a ton of strong metaphors that go beyond short, little punches lines. Without spoiling too much of the magic, wait for the extended Lion King metaphor he drops towards the middle of the song, and you’ll see what I mean.

Judging by his social media presence, Aris is a relatively unknown artist, but judging by his skill, he’s has plenty of room to grow. Don’t be surprised to see his name pop up more and more as time goes by, especially if he keeps cranking out quality tracks like this one.

So go ahead, pour yourself a glass of something cool, kick back in a hammock, give“Play It Smart Or Play It Heart” a listen above and enjoy.

For all things Aris P, keep it locked on EARMILK.
