Orlando, FL - “The Lord is near all who call out to him, all who call out to him with integrity. He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry for help and saves them. The Lord guards all those who love him, but he destroys all the wicked.” [Psalms 145:18-20]

It’s time to settle the score.

On September 2, 2025, Polished Arrow Music artists m1L and iNTELLECT release a bar-setting single for Christian hip hop across digital streaming platforms.

The high-energy Close Call is produced by Marv 4 Mo Beats and features a fusion of m1L’s (Florida) southern heat with iNTELLECT’s (Ohio) lyrical prowess. The result is a truly standout record in the acclaimed Polished Arrow catalog.

Fresh off the PA cypher release of “Bitter Waters,” m1L and iNTELLECT display the full range of artistry at work within the collective’s roster.

Close Call smacks listeners square in the face from the jump. Built on a melody composed of stabbing synths and a rapid-fire counter melody, the lyrical duo shows masterful control over both cadence and delivery throughout the three-minute record.

If you are looking for an expert blend of boom-bap lyricism and Southern vibes that demand you move, look no further than Close Call. Add it to your playlist on your favorite music streaming service.
