Hearken to 500, Stoner Pimpson, Papo2oo4, and Subjxct 5’s “Windy Metropolis Gyros”: New Rap Music At present

500, Stoner Pimpson, Papo2oo4, and Subjxct 5: “Windy Metropolis Gyros”

I’m able to name Subjxct 5 one of many hottest producers on the East Coast proper now. Have you ever heard the brand new era Swizz Beatz joint he made for Papo2oo4’s “Area Jam”? It sounds prefer it needs to be the loading display screen music for a brand new Def Jam: Struggle for NY. What about the way in which the Jersey producer seamlessly laced these soul-stirring gospel vocals into Wiki and Navy Blue’s “One Extra Likelihood”? Sorry to be blasphemous, however it gave me shades of Kanye behind the boards on Widespread’s “Devoted” (a hilariously batshit Widespread verse, by the way in which). Now it’s the beat he made for the brand new posse lower “Windy Metropolis Gyros.” As Chicago’s 500 and Stoner Pimpson and Jersey’s Papo get to work, Subjxct’s backdrop is unfussy, with solely galvanizing strings and a drip-drop of percussion that seems like a gradual leak out of your ceiling. If it was 2005, Kinds P could be on this saying he’s a hustler in 15 alternative ways, however the three rappers right here do job of holding issues down—even when they need to have gone on longer so the beat didn’t need to cease.

With artists releasing songs at a quick and livid tempo, it’s tough for the typical hip-hop head to maintain observe of all of it—irrespective of how tapped in they’re. That’s why we created The Ones, a day by day publish to focus on the tune you should hear.
