John Reilly tells the tale of a man at his wits end who decides to make others pay for his pain over a dark brooding organ-fueled instrumental provided by Rediculus. Within the fake newscast of an all too familiar scene of a mass shooting, John masterfully plays with the emotional tug of war within someone who’s out to bring others into his personal hell.
“The Response” is the third song in the #MusicIWannaMake campaign, which releases a new song every three weeks and continues to show John Reilly’s versatility as a story teller and emcee.
