This is the 16th EP from Atlanta, Georgia rapper Slimesito. Notable for being a member of the quintet Jurassic Park, he would also drop 3 LPs as well as 15 EPs & a mixtape of his own. Highlights in his discography include his 4th EP Scarface Sito, his 9th EP Rich Slime, his full-length debut Vida Brazy, 11th EP Life of a Slime & lastly the Dedication duology hosted by DJ Phat. And now with Yonkers producer Evilgiane of the Surf Gang coming fresh off lacing The Hillbillies’ eponymous debut single, I had a strong feeling ahead of EVILSLIME that it could top everything else as the crown jewel of Sito’s discography.
“Designer Drugz” gets the ball rolling detailing Slimesito’s lifestyle over a plugg instrumental whereas “Right or Wrong” co-produced by Eera finds the 2 joining forces going into a cloudier direction with some hi-hats thrown in talking about sliding for the gang without caring who’s in the right or who’s in the wrong. “Bandoleros” kinda has this airy drill vibe to the beat referring to himself as a rebel prior to the booming “Mona Lisa” painting the block much like the iconic painting the EP’s artwork pays homage to.
K$upreme joins Sito on the psychedelic “Top Floor” flexing the penthouse status that both artists have earned at this point in their careers while the atmospheric drill hybrid “Make It Home” reminding everyone that he been had motion. “Bruise Wayne” works in these ominous synth melodies & hi-hats talking about being on the block no differently than Batman, but then “12 03 93” gives me a cinematic vibe instrumentally feeling like making shit snow although it’s summertime.
“Top Kapo” pushes near the end of EVILSLIME calling himself a top dog over a cloudy beat just before “No Stress” clashes hi-hats & low-register synth melodies refusing to stress over Ls by getting back in counting through all the racks. The closing track “Dr. Evil” finishes the EP with a more playful tone in the production & Sito talking about everyone calling him evil since they know he stay plotting, likening himself to the titular antagonist of the Austin Powers trilogy.
Giane’s increasing popularity in the last couple years has been making me extremely happy as someone who’s been paying attention to him for the past 3 years & not only has become EVILSLIME my new favorite Slimesito EP, but I’d even put it up there with RealYungPhil’s 5th EP Dr. Phil as one of the greatest projects that the Surf Gang member has fully produced for another artist so far since the end result is Evilgiane’s sound being used as a canvas for Sito to paint his masterpiece.
Score: 4/5
