– Chris
Benzz – Je’ M’appelle
I truly knew nothing of Benzz and I may never like another joint. That being said, the original of this track caught my ear for using such a classic house tune and turning it into a drill banger. Repetitive w a short run time but if the bass and sample don’t get ya, you might be dead.
Tobe Nwigwe – Round here Pt 1 & 2
When I believe in artists and really fuck w them I leave the tune do the talking.
Enjoy.
Lupe Fiasco – Drill Music In Zion
Chicagos woke-ass uncle is BACK!
Many ONLY know Lupe for “Kick Push” or whatever poppy song he did w that human from Paramore. Many never looked at the absolute lyrical genius the MC has blessed the entire world with. Heavily overlooked in the past ten+ years due to ZERO studio albums (till now) but always popping up when needed and SMASHING other MCs beats.
Sit back and let the story unfold.
