Reason Celebrates His New Album With A Spot-On ‘UPROXX Sessions’ Performance Of ‘Call Me’

by

Top Dawg Entertainment rapper Reason released a new album, Porches, earlier this month, and now he’s celebrating with an appearance on the latest installment of UPROXX Sessions. Standing in front of the classic colorful graffiti wall, he delivered an A-plus rendition of the introspective album highlight “Call Me.”

Porches is Reason’s second album and the follow-up to his 2020 debut, New Beginnings. The project saw Reason seamlessly integrate himself into the contemporary hip-hop landscape as he linked up with featured artists like Schoolboy Q, Vince Staples, Rapsody, and Ab-Soul. His debut LP arrived after a series of independently released mixtapes caught TDE’s attention; He initially released There You Have It on his own in 2017, but TDE reissued the project the next year. Also in 2018, he landed an appearance on Black Panther: The Album, one of the year’s most beloved releases.

Check out Reason’s UPROXX Sessions performance of “Call Me” above.

REASON Delivers His New Album 'Porches,' Debuts "Call Me" Video

Carson’s very own REASON, a prominent artist under Top Dawg Entertainment (TDE), has unveiled his highly anticipated second album, Porches. Collaborating with a star-studded lineup, including fellow TDE artists Doechii, SiR, Zacari, and Ray Vaughn, alongside KalanFRFR and more, the album paints a rich tapestry of emotions and experiences.

Produced by an impressive roster including Boi-1da, Vinylz, fierce, Hollywood Cole, Coleman, Mike Hector, and DJ Swish, Porches delves into the shared threads that unite all human lives, regardless of their origin. The album ingeniously explores the concept that, while our paths may differ, the emotions that define us remain interconnected. Through a blend of personal narratives and stories from family members’ perspectives, Porches creates a compelling mosaic that resonates deeply with listeners.

Born in the heart of South Central and later relocating to Carson, REASON’s album navigates the unique interplay between these neighborhoods, lending a poignant depth to the project. “Porches” is not just an album; it’s a masterful reflection of the human experience, inviting audiences to explore the common ground that binds us all.

Logic Commits To Being There For A Loved One On The Supportive ‘Call Me’

Just like many rappers who claimed they were retiring from the game have done, Logic reemerged from his cave to step up to the mic and share new music with fans shortly after his declaration. His return came less than a year after the release of his sixth album, No Pressure, a project he used to momentarily conclude his career. Now, the Maryland rapper is back in action, and he adds on to his recent string of releases with his latest effort, “Call Me.”

The track is a laid-back effort that’s conceptually similar to his highest-charting single, “1-800-273-8255,” as it finds him providing a hand of support to those around him who might be in need of it. “You know you can call me / When nobody picking up,” he raps over the song’s mellow production. “When it feel like don’t nobody in the world give a f*ck / Call me / I’ll be there to pick you up.”

“Call Me” is the third single that Logic revealed that his next project, Bobby Tarantino III, is on the way. The first was “Vaccine,” which he recently shared a music video for, and the second was “My Way.” Aside from Bobby Tarantino III, Logic is also promoting a joint project with Madlib as he’s shared a collection of singles that include “Raddest Dad” and “Mafia Music.”
