The journey to the top could be a tedious one. While America encourages us to work as hard as we can to achieve our dreams, it could be easy to get caught with your head down and blinders on, completely unaware. Although New York native Jacques Laine might do just that, he never forgets to, “Check In.”

Though it could be considered long by today’s standards — it runs 3 minutes — there’s never a dull moment throughout, “Check In.” Whether its Laine’s aggressive cadence, his detailed lyricism or the high-octane production, “Check In” makes for a wildly enjoyable ride, while also keeping things in check.

Listen to, “Check In” below and be sure to stay hip to Jacques Laine.
