Man, what a year this man has had so far! From his instant classic in January to his most recent project not that long ago, this man is on a quest to make the best possible discography before the end of the year, and to be honest, he hasn’t missed yet! Let’s talk about it!
This is the latest EP by MC K. Burns and Producer Crabskull, and together they released five new tracks featuring the likes of
– Teller Bank$
– Conspiracy
Starting with the production here, I feel this is more on the ‘mellow’ side than we’ve seen him so far. Even more so than his ‘A Stoners Life’ and definitely a deep contrast to his January record ‘War Dogs’, which is still one of the darkest and muddiest records you’ll hear in 2025.
But regardless, Crabskull provides a generally atmospheric, surreal, and hypnotic experience with fusions of Hip Hop, Lo-Fi, Jazz, Soft Rock, and Ambient.
This is the kind of instrumentals that makes your brain wonder and your body relax as you get ready to experience a dope hip hop record that will keep you tunnel-visioned in until the very final track. Only 13 minutes; they knew they didn’t have any time for filler or bullshit, and so there is not!
Mellow doesn’t mean less than. When producers or artists find their perfect ‘rhythm’ and sound, then it can become engaging, addictive, and most importantly, memorable. I feel this EP, although only five tracks, has enough substance, rich instrumentation, and high-quality production to keep everyone coming back for more!
What’s there left to say about K. That hasn’t already been said? I can say this: he’s definitely one of the most wavy MC’s in the game right now. He drips swagger, and he can make any noise that comes out of his mouth, whether that be bars or adlibs, sound entertaining!
As usual, he’s delivering his bars in the most paced and methodical manner possible. He’s never in any rush and he’s in no need to be. He’s the man in this game right now building a legacy for himself that most will only dream of, and in that reality, there’s no room for him to be chasing after anyone!
His lyricism is top tier, his flow is fluent as usual, and his cadence is ruthless, relentless, and his pen game is sharp and cutthroat!
He’s the kind of MC that is more than capable of working solo to make a project and is also equally as capable of making a record pop with a healthy roster of guests!
On this one, he brings only two MC’s but they are some of the best in the game! To me, this feels like a flex, a message to the haters saying ‘If I can rap alongside these two cats, who can’t I fuck with?’ And those two tracks absolutely slap!
Once again, another SOLID record by K. Burns to add to his collection. He’s proving to have one of the best runs in the game right now, and who’s going to stop him?
