Homeboy Sandman is like Nas unleashed live on stage. It's as clear as glass, from the moment Homeboy walks on stage that he is fresh out of New York City, the Big Apple. He prowls on stage with such swag and his tunes ring of a New York vibe so powerfully.
Homeboy Sandman, actually named at birth Angel Del Villar II- why not go with that name for a stage name I don't know, is an American old school rapper. He is still living in the glory days of N.W.A and Wu-Tang, but bringing in later influences of Nas and adding that touch of individual sound that brings a completely new character to live rap.
His debut album Nourishment, released all the way back in 2007, sent Homebody from underground rap scenes to the lights camera and action of live rap, performing in front of thousand of Sandman fans.
As said before, his flow derives greatly from Nas but his melodic and representable lyrics are all Homeboy. And when he raps live you can see that glint in his eyes which displays Homeboy's connection to these lyrics. A special rap artist from the heart of America.
