We are SO BACK for this release! It’s been a minute since the last one, and it seems a few new faces have come forward in the production of this new album, which makes it that ever more exciting!
So let’s not waste any more time, let’s all pick up our laced blunts, pray to god it ain’t crack and burn that shit slow and steady as we get ready to tackle this new project!
Brand new album by MC Concept and fellow producers such as
-Gigs
-Marvelous Beats
-Jazzy Lion Man
-Deven Nettles
-Gigs
-E.D. Nix
And with only seven tracks here, they really didn’t waste any time getting going with a variety of sounds you wouldn’t expect to be on the same album!
Like, for example, the fact that ‘Humble Flex’ and ‘RAP MONEY’ are on the same album is insane. Two completely different vibes and sonic textures! The first being this melodic, hypnotic, and mesmerising atmosphere with those luscious keys and light plucked strings.
While the second has this heavy crunk, Lil Jon feel to it! Heavy, unapologetic, and sharp in every single way! (And that’s only two songs)
For the rest of the record, we have tracks like ‘Started Snappin’ which has a heavy soul/jazz feel to it, which is to be expected from Jazzy Lion Man. Back with that infectiously light instrumentals!
Even the way the record ends with ‘Calamari At Carmines’ which has more of those plucked strings and this time chipmunk-inspired choir vocals and intricate keys. It feels like a B-side from Kanye’s ‘The College Dropout’ it’s Swift, groovy, and memorable!
The point is, with the list of producers comes a variety of sounds that is sure to impress everyone at some point! Appealing to every kind of demographic, and that’s dope!
Now onto Concept, ever the chameleon himself! Being able to switch up his verses to match the variety in the music. At some points, he’s slow-paced, humbled, and delicate. At others, he’s flexing, brash, and loud!
He’s the king of that switch-up shit, being able to dominate any lane available and stick his flag in the dirt and claim it as his own!
He’s an absolute beast with his pen game, always being able to capture the audience’s attention and play out his lyricism and flow like a cinematic play ready to be presented from start to finish!
He does have a few features on here that he handpicked to make this record run ever so smoothly and elevate the record further! Each man would, of course, play crucial supporting roles and casts and turn this solo film into an Oscar-worthy performance with a score to match!
This is honestly (in every way possible) better than the first. It’s more experimental, more complex, and complete. More colourful and with many more layers attached, it does feel like you’ve smoked the most ungodly joint of your life and are forced to go through the process of a story you won’t soon forget!
