Philly Blocks is as slick as can be on his fresh, Kentucky anthem, “Days Of Our Lives”. Packed with an accompanying music video, which features the rapper fancying a typical, Louisville night, this new-age trap smash is beyond impressive. The Bluegrass State emcee brings his best wordplay, delivery and metaphors to this nearly three-minute opus. Stark 808s boom across a malevolent melody, with scattering hihats and trap drums, as Philly Blocks raps about his upbringing in those Southern streets. What juts out about “Days Of Our Lives” is how lyrical the record is, and how vivid its visual grows to be. Both elements of this hardbody effort get better and better as the runtime lunges on. Between scenes of the talented spitter frequenting corner stores, blocks, and his fellow Team 563 members, Philly Blocks delivers a lyrical performance synonymous to the greats of the Golden Era. He is precise with every bar he lays in the booth; and that precision not only enhances “Days Of Our Lives”, but likewise makes the Kentucky rapper a treasure in the current era of Hip-Hop.

The beginning of RK DMOB’s colossal single, “B!+CH”, is mellow and slow. Yet, the moment his voice collides with the mic, everything explodes. A North Carolinian whirlwind rips through the booth, leaving nothing but a trunk-rattling banger in its wake. “Diamonds on my neck, bitch! I run up a check, bitch!” RK DMOB is scorching the very moment the first 808 drops; rocking the chilled, rhodes chord progression with a flurry of modern-trap drums. A Houston twang, which has crept into the rapper’s delivery through eight years of living in the Lonestar State, wobbles at the end of each and every bar. The fusion of these two influences (North Carolina and Texas), into “B!+CH” make for the perfect Southern, club-ready hit. Whether he’s banging out of your aux, or blasting from the speakers of your local venue; one thing’s for certain: RK DMOB will be climbing the charts.

“We be the goons!” In an unquenchable burst of zeal and hunger, H6Z100 (Hbeezyonehundred) is letting us have it with “100”, his latest, hard-hitting release. It is a three-minute and twenty-two second tirade proffered through his Soundcloud, equipped with everything you would expect of a Michigan anthem. The vigorous prance of 808 kicks rumbling beneath a malicious, piano melody and scattering trap percussion, creates a bounce reminiscent of the Detroit sound. Yet, our Ypsilanti native makes it uniquely his own. Through his lively delivery, street-hardened lyricism, and melodious, auto-tuned hook, H6Z100 fully invites us into his existence. Warring between a life on the block, and a love for God, this Midwest emcee has his back against the wall. Yet, as “100” proves, when the heat is on, H6Z100 becomes a force to be reckoned with. He will hit the booth and lash out with a bombing banger. All of his turmoil is destined to pay off; for, “100” is just the song H6Z100 needs to explode.
