Real Freestyle 1999

In 'Real Freestyle 1999,' Orochi, in collaboration with Rap Box, delves into the raw and unfiltered journey of life, capturing the essence of ambition, struggle, and the pursuit of dreams. The song opens with a reflection on the dualities of life—ambitions and illusions, sincere gazes and insane hearts. Orochi speaks to the relentless pursuit of his goals, driven by the need to uplift his family from difficult times. This drive is not just a personal mission but a responsibility, as he feels chosen for this path. The concept of 'real freestyle' here symbolizes the unpredictable and improvisational nature of life, where one must adapt and persevere through various challenges.

The lyrics also touch on the monotony and weariness that can come from familiarity. Orochi expresses a desire for change, to explore new horizons and escape the repetitive cycle of his current environment. This longing for 'new seas' and 'new airs' signifies a quest for growth and new experiences. The metaphor of diving into a tsunami and not riding the hype wave suggests a deep, immersive approach to life, rather than just skimming the surface for temporary thrills. Orochi's reflections on his journey since 1999, starting from a young age, highlight his evolution and the sacrifices made along the way, including losing friends but gaining respect and recognition in the streets.

The recurring theme of using music as a healing force is prominent in the song. Orochi aims to soothe the listener's pain and be a source of comfort during tough times, much like how music has been a solace for him. The reference to 'Os Loucos Sabem' (The Crazy Ones Know) underscores the power of music to touch the soul and provide a sense of understanding and connection. Through 'Real Freestyle 1999,' Orochi not only shares his personal narrative but also offers a universal message of resilience, transformation, and the profound impact of music on our lives.
