Stanwill – “Stan Always Will” review

Detroit, Michigan rapper Stanwill starting the new month with his 4th studio LP. Coming up as 1/3 of the ShittyBoyz with Babytron & TR Dee signing to Lando Bando’s own The Hip Hop Lab Records, he eventually branched out on his own during the COVID-19 pandemic off the debut EP $camwill as well as it’s successor Gifted & the debut mixtape Van Gundy. He also went Full Auto for his 3rd EP & 4ever $hittin’ after Still $hittin’ celebrated it’s 1-year anniversary last weekend trying out new sounds, he’s clarifying that Stan Always Will.

“No Lol” comes out the gate referencing current AEW performer & commentator as well as former 7-time WWE world champion, 11-time WWE Tag Team Champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWE United States Champion & 3-time WWE Hardcore Champion Paul Wight whereas “Power” talks about not being as sweet as some think he is. “Spring Fling” keeps it in the Detroit trap style instrumentally describing a girl he met named Summer while “4th Dimension” produced by Danny G treats beef like a shish kebab.

As for “Rocky Road”, we have Stan talking about taking the dirt path & coming out icier than he ever was leading into “Lime Light” featuring Nasaan uniting both of them so they can trade verses with each other talking about hittin’ muhfuckas with the fire soon as they catch ‘em. “50 Shots” throws in a cool bar referring to the Amazon-owned Fire TV Sticks turning any television set into a smart TV just before “Kung Pao” discusses having to do no talking & let the guns fire off.

“Kelly Olynyk” has a grittier Detroit trap flare to the beat comparing himself to the New Orleans Pelicans player of the same name prior to TR Dee joining Stan on “Pushing Daisies” to talk about the paper giving them butterflies soon as they see it cruising in a 45 except they feel like they pushin’ 80. “Run & Gun” boasts that his stash is 3x the size of whatever yours is providing the soundtrack for those who be spinning the block while “Rock Lee” featuring T Bone drops people similarly to the Naruto character.

The classy sample during “Bora Bora” was pleasant to the ears telling his girl that it’s normal for his competition to be punching under their weight in a battle with him while “Villain Arc” talks about people getting him in a time where he bounces back from a tragic event in his life. “Voila” likens the way he lives now to BMF co-founder Big Meech keeping only the pros in his mind these days while “Recipe” featuring Babyfxce E claps back at people claiming that have the sauce taking it up a notch.

“Cuban Links” continues the 2nd half of Stan Always Will airing people out quicker than the greatest basketball player of all-time Michael Jordan while “GG” humorously suggests that he injures bitches the way he be smashin’ ‘em. “Mucinex” shows a bit of a Mobb influence calling anyone stupid to get in an altercation with the Dog $hit Militia while “Ding Dong” by the Dookie Brothers references former ECW World Heavyweight Champion, ECW World Television Champion, IWGPタッグチャンピオン, WCW Hardcore Champion & 2-time WCW World Tag Team Champion Bam Bam Bigelow.

The song “Powerball” reaches the album’s final moments feeling like the Warner Bros. subsidiary DC Entertainment-owned Superman ahead of the DC Universe media franchise & shared universe beginning in a couple months while “2 Easy” talks about jackin’ people in the face wearing the honorary WWE Hardcore Champion Travis Scott’s line of shoes. “By Any Means” finishes us off by hoping he runs into his enemies & cutting off people who ain’t did shit for him.

53 weeks since the most versatile body of work in Stan’s solo discography & he takes it back to a prominent Detroit trap style for this one spitting rapid fire verses on nearly every song in addition to him bringing on a more consistent guest list that delivers less misses than hits steadily keeping up with his pen. Whether he’s by himself or accompanied by either one or both of his ShittyBoyz cohorts, Stan Always Will deliver & come correct in terms of leveling up in terms of making the most exciting music in his style.

Score: 4/5

Krispylife Kidd – “Why Me Worry?” review

This is the 15th mixtape from Flint, Michigan rapper Krispylife Kidd. Since 2019, his popularity in the local trap scene has been gradually increasing since 2019 going on to release a total of his previous 13 tapes & 4 EPs all in that span of time. Icewear Vezzo even signed him to Iced Up Records during the pandemic & Lil Yachty who appeared at WrestleMania XLI this year had him featured on Michigan Boy Boat. Now I’d start with Krispylife 2 & The Art of Spice Talk trilogy if you wanna dive into Krispylife’s music, although Juice & B.A.G. (Born A Goat) each had their own individual standouts last year & now asks Why Me Worry? merely 3 months after the Stunt Life EP.

After the “Goat” intro, the first song “Back 2 It” is a bell-heavy Detroit trap opener refusing to let anyone hang around him unless you’ve caught a body whereas “Bottle Girl Scam” hilariously assumes that those going out their way for clout are fans & he shouldn’t be rapping since there’s nothing left to gain. “President Run” featuring Babyfxce E & produced by The World Famous D-Boy samples “Creep” by TLC so they can pass the mic back-&-forth with one another just before the lowend “Home Blesser” talks about paying a bitch’s rent.

“Life as a Hustler” moves forward showing y’all how he used to run it up on the blocks explaining what it was like for him being a go-getter leading into “Dope Man” talking about moving weight in the streets & making $100k off the drugs he be sellin’ & “Mile Count” featuring Tay B once again displaying a back-&-forth chemistry from both of them, except I feel like it was done much better on “President Run” a while ago & I’ve never considered myself a big Babyfxce E fan.

After the “Off the Rope” interlude, “Hell in a Cell” takes it’s name after the prestigious steel cage-based matches in WWE that most recently ended former 6-time WWE world champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWE tag team champion, 2-time AEW World Champion, inaugural ROH Hall of Fame inductee, ROH World Champion, 2-time ROH World Tag Team Champion, 5-time IWA World Champion, former UFC fighter CM Punk’s feud with 4-time WWE world champion, NXT Champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, 4-time WWE tag team champion & TNA World Champion Drew McIntyre last fall.

“Like Triple H” compares himself to the 2-time WWE Hall of Famer, 14-time WWE world champion, 5-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, 3-time WWE tag team champion & the WME Group-owned TKO Group Holdings division’s CCO since 2022 but after “$100K Pallet” responds to a group of people dissing him by bodying every single one of them in a cypher, “Knock It Off” claps back at a dude who wants beef by getting his own father involved with it

2-time WWE Hall of Famer, former 16-time WWE world champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, 6-time WWE United States Champion, 6-time WWE tag team champion & 9-time NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair gets homaged on “Figure 4 Leg Lock” since he was the one who had popularized the maneuver with others following suit for years to come while “What Motion” wraps up Why Me Worry? by telling everyone at home what motion REALLY is since they don’t have it the way he does.

Looking to continue catching up with his mentor, quite possibly my favorite signing on the IUR imprint Krispylife Kidd takes an opportunity during Why Me Worry? to take the throne as a larger than life living legend & undisputed champion of the world by himself other than a couple average features. Aside from that & preferring Stuntman Beatz’ production on the last EP a bit more, his imaginative approach to songwriting remains strong during the half hour.

Score: 3.5/5

Tayo – “Bye” review

Seattle, Washington up-&-coming rapper & producer Tayo releasing his 7th EP. Originally starting under the moniker ByeTayo, he started on SoundCloud close around Halloween 2021 off his first few EPs Crash on Purpose as well as Inside Voices & PM the following year. He would later go on applying pressure with couple more EPs in wintr & a sequel to PM, coming off Thank You Tayo roughly 8 months ago so he can take himself to newer levels both artistically & personally on Bye.

The plugg-driven intro “19” talks about keeping a Glock on his hip & having a lot of money for not being in his 20s yet whereas “short dork” works in more synthesizers to suggest he’s thinking too much. “Tobacco Vanille” was a great choice of a plugg single suggesting he’d die if he can get any more flyer than he is now & “DJ Phat” gives his flowers to the iconic New Jersey deejay notable in modern trap.

“Rainbow 6” was another tight single building up the release of this EP talking about him needing somebody to lean on & having what others don’t just before the self-produced “wtf” gets even heavier with the synthesizers for a pluggnb track even if Tayo’s singing feels reminiscent to Lil Yachty at certain points. “pink 10” turns the distortion up a little to talk about doing pills while “text her” playfully contemplate hitting up his girl.

“nun (text her 2)” nears the end of the EP with some bubbly synth melodies taking a melancholic approach than he did on the predecessor while “me & you” reflects on him kickin’ it with a chick in a hotel room for 105 seconds approximately. “get up” continues the plugg vibes telling his girl that he doesn’t even wanna fuck & “matters” finishes Bye wondering if she leaving or not.

5 months ago when RRoxket put out his eponymous mixtape last Black Friday, I had mentioned him as somebody to watch out for in the plugg scene & Tayo makes it a point to insert himself in the conversation merely 4 weeks after Rixhie Rixh 2 came out. My favorite aspect of Bye easily has to be the plugg-heavy production & although the Seattle artist isn’t a bad performer by any means, he has more than enough time to gradually evolve going forward.

Score: 3.5/5

Jimmie D – “Good Music Hypnotizes” review

This is the sophomore effort from Montréal, Québec, Canada rapper Jimmie D. Coming up off the Trout & Brussels Sprouts EP, he would later go on to put out a full-length debut alongside a mixtape & 3 more EPs all in almost a decade. A notable collaborator of his as of late would be one of my favorite producers of this current decade decade Nicholas Craven, who has decided to full produce Good Music Hypnotizes to the peaking interest of many, including myself personally.

“Notre Dame” stripped the drums to start off the album talking about having a couple close ones although he doesn’t trust anybody whereas “The Gout” featuring Tha God Fahim keeps it drumless doing this for the love instead of clout. “2 Sides” featuring Raz Fresco brings a soulful boom bap flare to the table talking about striving to win while “High Winds” featuring Koncept Jack$on boasts that they have more flow than excessive winds.

Meanwhile on “Porzingis”, we have Jimmie going for a chipmunk soul vibe lifting shit with scales as if he’s a python just before “Fallen” soulfully talks about feeling as if his people are cursed. “Commonwealth” featuring Sonnyjim continues the high quality sampling airing out everyone who’s never put in a long day’s worth of work, but then “Dead Cat Bounce” talks running shit for decades like a dictator.

“Spring” appropriately hits the backend of Good Music Hypnotizes with a drumless chipmunk soul cut in time for the current season we’re in the midst of until late next month while “Laser Focused” hooks up some cool jazz undertones feeling more concentrated than ever. “Digital Minds” featuring Juug Soe closes the LP with some horns liking themselves to art dealers the way they paint pictures.

Mainly hearing him on guest appearances spread throughout other artists’ projects, Good Music Hypnotizes has officially surpassed Good Man in being the most important offering in Jimmie’s discography because of the drumless sound he’s known for getting enhanced by Nicholas Craven & of course the local Montréal performer on the mic stepping up his pen-game.

Score: 4/5

The Pharcyde – “Timeless” review

The Pharcyde is a pioneering alternative hip hop crew from Los Angeles, California now consisting of Fatlip, Imani & Slimkid3. Originally a quartet, their first couple albums Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde & Labcabincalifornia would become some of the most beloved in the west coast scene. Plain Rap was more moderately received with Humboldt Beginnings & Spear of the Nation both leaving fans divided, looking to bounce back on this brand new EP & the 2nd one in their whole discography.

“Citrus Nioxide” featuring Danny Brown & produced by Rockwilder kicks off the 4-track run with everyone talking about having the answers to the questions on them always catchin’ em on the downslide whereas “Oscar” is the only song I could do without here suggesting they should be awarded for acting the way they do. The title track works in some prominent piano chords thanks to Rick Rock advising not to let life pass you by & “Phabulous” soulfully ties it up with the help of Khrysis reminding everyone who they are.

Nearly 3 years after reuniting without Bootie Brown as a trio, Timeless connects The Pharcyde’s legacy of offbeat humor as well as their jazz-laced beats & unconventional lyricism with a new era of experimental hip hop. With them being away from the scene for almost 2 decades, they took the time to highlight producers they’ve been fans of & help them craft the strongest batch of late career material in their arson.

Score: 3.5/5

Pasto Flocco – “March Madness 3” review

This is the 4th mixtape from Queens rapper Pasto Flocco. Coming up as an associate of Lil Tecca, he’s seen quite the success off his own once branching out on his own by dropping his first 2 albums March Madness & Dreams 2 Reality along with a debut mixtape Surf to Kill (SGBSTK) as a member of the Surf Gang collective. Pasto rang in 2022 by dropping sophomore tape R.O.A.M. (Rich Off A Mic) under his newly founded Ghetto Luxury Entertainment & continued to build upon the sample drill sound on March Madness 2 in the spring & then Walking Glitch. He returned to a plugg sound few months ago on Rebirth & is now looking to close out the March Madness trilogy.

“James Harden (Dancing with the Stars)” is a quirky trap intro to the tape referencing Avengers leader Tony Stark or Iron Man owned by The Walt Disney Company subsidiary Marvel whereas “GLE Troopin’” cloudily represents Ghetto Luxury for roughly 90 seconds thanks to J6. “They Know!” produced by Maajins talks about everyone knowing he got swag while the self-produced “Dance Through the Storm” doesn’t shy away from detailing his recent hardships.

As for “Laughing When She Lie”, we have Pasto turning up the psychedelic trap vibes a bit laughing off his girl tryna cap to him just before the cloudy “Cali Breeze” talks about a hoe showing him ass after pissing him off although he shows her the door. “Been Gettin’ $” speaks on him gradually making paper & hanging with him not being so cheap, but then “Saddle River” dabbles with plugg flexing he got 5 Guys if it’s beef.

“$ the Route to the Evil” starts the 2nd half of March Madness 3 advising to stay clear from a certain type of people while “Reggie Bush” talks about doing too much with all these racks on him. “Fuckin’ 4 Getback” heads for a rage-inducing direction to discuss women saying they love him only for it to be bullshit later on while “Zoom!” maintains a hypertrap flare talking about how funny it is that people try to use him.

To get the 4th quarter of the tape going, “Flocc Chamberlain” works in some synths & hi-hats courtesy of Swervo of Vanguard Music Group boasting how fly he is likening himself to Wilt Chamberlain obviously while “Pour4Me” heavily relies more on synths talking about getting fucked up with him under the influence. “Why Slime Me?” goes for a spacious trap approach shrugging off the idea of him getting tired of rockin’ & rollin’ while “New $ New Gunz” wants to know what the fuck you doing if you ain’t making bread.

March Madness alongside March Madness 2 are both individually important to Pasto’s discography in their own rights & even though I don’t understand why he released the trilogy chapter at the beginning of May unlike both predecessors coming out in the exact month the saga is named after, I still enjoyed it as much as Rebirth when he made his return after 2 years. He’s obviously grown both personally & artistically almost a decade later with the production reaching the mark his most recent EP had set.

Score: 4/5

Benny the Butcher – “Excelsior” review

Buffalo, New York emcee Benny the Butcher returning after 9 months for his 9th EP. Being in the game for 2 decades already, it wouldn’t be until 2016 where he alongside his cousins Westside Gunn & Conway the Machine would take the culture by storm off projects like Tana Talk 3 & The Plugs I Met. Harry Fraud came in for a sequel to the latter following the mature Burden of Proof & finally, Tana Talk 4 took it back to the basement a couple years back. Coming off having Hit-Boy produce half of it & leaving the other half to The Alchemist produce his Def Jam Recordings debut Everybody Can’t Go along with both Summertime Butch & Buffalo Butch back-to-back, Excelsior’s looking to refine the styles of those predecessors.

After the “Corner” intro, the first song “I’m the Program” is this symphonic boom bap opener suggesting you gotta laugh at life sometimes whereas “Sign Language” works in a vocal sample thanks to Harry Fraud living in the moment since too much going on. “$ & Power” featuring Skylar Blatt dabbles with trap courtesy of Daringer wanting those 2 things while “Duffel Bag Hottie’s Revenge” featuring Boldy James talks about the B$F artist currently behind bars. “Toxic” featuring Styles P returns to the boom bap to unite the Butcher with the Ghost until “B$F” featuring Fuego Base & Sule ends by repping their set.

With Excelsior, Benny continues to cement his place as one of the most important & vital voices in hip hop today continuing his evolution becoming reactivated in summertime mode with the streets watching & the culture listening. Some have jumped off the porch early & understood the game instantly, others took a lil time & some needed their hand held in every aspect and was only good at riding coattails. Then you have got people like him who’re The Chosen Few.

JPEGMAFIA – “We Live in a Society” review

Here we have the 5th EP from Baltimore emcee, singer, producer & visionary JPEGMAFIA. Breaking out almost a decade ago off his full-length debut Black Ben Carson, it wouldn’t be until the man’s next 2 albums Veteran & All My Heroes are Cornballs where he would reveal himself as one of the most creative minds in hip hop today. The 8-track EP, it’s follow-up with almost all newly recorded material, LP!, the Danny Brown collab effort Scaring the Hoes & Peggy’s production credits on both of ¥$’ albums Vultures & Vultures 2. We got a deluxe version of I Lay Down My Life for You that I highly enjoyed last summer & is teaming up with Flume so he can produce We Live in a Society.

“Track 1” starts off as a spoken word piece up until the drop during the 2nd half of it whereas “Is It Real” feels more of an Ravyn Lenae cut since Peggy only handles the hook singing about if the love they have is legitimate. “AI Girlfriend” humorously pokes fun at the concept of being romantically involved with artificial intelligence probably because of Kim Kardashian dating a Tesla robot these days while “The Ocean’s Fake” ends by admitting not even know when to see this individual again & goin’ back in time for them.

Being a big fan of the visionary take JPEGMAFIA has had on experimental hip hop on top of Flume’s influence in the wonky scene, both of these worlds collide for a quick 16 & a half minute EP meshing each of those individual styles together. Flume’s production here also contains hints of cloud rap, alternative R&B as prominently shown on the Ravyn Lenae song, industrial hip hop & a dash of sketch comedy as a way of holding Peggy fans off until it’s time for his new album whenever that may be.

Score: 3.5/5

Devstacks – “4SOULJASONLY” review

Devstacks is a 25 year old rapper & producer from Boston, Massachusetts emerging off the Now They Know Us trilogy with the first 2 installments being EPs & the concluding chapter becoming his full-length studio debut. His 3rd EP Scriptures has proven to become his breakout project, going on to produce for the likes of Ty Fontaine to Kevin Abstract & more recently Diorvsyou the previous weekend. Starting the month of May off, Dev’s getting back on the mic for a sophomore effort.

“Shoutout Jesus Christ” puts a psychedelic spin on rage dropping braggadocio whereas “The Hills” goes for a druggier vibe aesthetically talking about buying stupid shit since he’s stupid rich now. “Soulja’s Coming” cloudily discusses being a heavyweight & geeked up at the exact same time leading into “Why U Make Thay Face?” talking about making bitches go crazy & never having a backup plan.

Everyone who thought he fell off gets clapped back on “Hate the Feeling” blending some pianos & hi-hats to make a killin’ just before “Lmk U Made It Home Ok” heads for more of a pop rap direction asking this woman to show him somethin’. “1of1” picks up from there flexing his unique style crossing over trap & regalia while “Wipe Your Nose” dismisses the supposed swagger of someone who chases hoes instead of chips.

“Thriller” turns the bass up talking about having the baddest woman right beside him & making a movie with her while “parlay” featuring Swapa contains prominent performances from the latter since Dev has a criminally underwritten verse during the middle of it. “Shaderoom” compares the way hoes speaking ill of him to the Instagram news page while “Pictures” talks about his girl wanting to catch some flicks like a photographer.

Starting the final leg, “Sport Mode” breaks down his pockets eatin’ full court & hopping out a 4-door while “To My Crib” talks about his girl knowing exactly what time it is the second she pulls up to his place. “Keep It” ends the LP by advising women to never lie to him under any circumstance homaging the “Keep It Playa” track off Pharrell’s underrated solo debut In My Mind.

Few of his recent producer landings in the past year or 2 was what made me want to listen to 4SouljasOnly & it’s different from what we’ve already heard on Scriptures & the Now They Know Us saga. The sound he goes for on this one mainly departs from the regalia style that made him so popular in favor of standard trap relating to anyone with a soulja mindset clocking at a half hour.

Score: 3.5/5

Key Glock – “Glockaveli” review

Key Glock is a 27 year old from Memphis, Tennessee whose cousin Young Dolph signed him to Paper Route Empire in 2017 after his debut mixtape Whole Lotta Errthang. He has since released 4 more tapes in addition to an EP & 3 full-lengths, the most notable being his previous LP Glockoma 2 in the spring of 2023 showing considerable improvements in his Memphis gangsta trap style. Republic Records happened to sign him a couple months ago & is ringing it in with his 4th album albeit major label debut.

“Hallelujah” crosses over trap, a gospel sample & Memphis rap talking about the amount of money he’s counting starting to make his head spin whereas the title track shrugs off any notion of slowing down putting that bread up for his baby. “Blue Devil” boastfully shows off the 2 blue diamonds he got on him just before the soulful “Made a Way” talks about fucking up & still finding a path out of the trenches.

Moving on from there, “Watch da Throne” continues the sampling of soul music warning that everyone he considers to be competition should play it safe while “Badu” talks about letting the chopper sing similarly to the neo-soul icon Erykah Badu herself & making his own rules. “She Ready” flips Teri DeSario showing a romantic side to Key Glock breaking down the way this chick be blowing up his phone, but then “No Sweat” talks about never letting anyone see him tripping.

“The Grinch” takes the throne as the finest of South Memphis continuing the legacy of his late cousin who was tragically murdered a few years ago while “Sunny Dayz” blends soul & trap once again talking about only fearing God as well as cutting throats from ear to ear. “Papercutz” goes for a more playful tone altogether simply trying to have fun out here while “Kill My Vibe” asks for these bitches not to fuck up the good mood he’s in at the moment.

As for “I’m Getting It”, we have Glock putting a hoe on pause because of her gettin’ caught up in her feelings & uppin’ the score while “Again” talks about hitting the road again in addition to promising that anyone who plays with him will wind up working on the end. “Cream Soda” returns to a Memphis edge instrumentally riding around with the sticks while “Don Dada” talks about hustling ever since he was only a toddler.

“World is Ourz” reaches the backend of Key Glock’s major label debut blending Memphis rap & plugg a little showing off the power he has while “3am in ToKEYo” was my favorite single that was teased whether it by the DJ Paul & TWhy beat or the self made lyricism talking about never needing any help after coming into this world all by himself on top of thinking his lil’ bro should become a chef with the way he cooking the opps.

WWE Hall of Famer, former 2-time WWE world champion, ECW World Television Champion, 6-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, 5-time WWE Tag Team Champion, 4-time & the final WWE Hardcore Champion, TNA World Champion & TNA X Division Champion Rob Van Dam gets referenced on “Money Habits” to start the deluxe run while “Going Hard” talks about killing it from the very day he was born. “All Dogs Go to Heaven” hops over a DY & Tre Pounds instrumental to call out the people who’d do literally anything for a penny while “Set in Stone” suggests to move along if you ain’t conversing with him about money.

“South Memphis Patriot” reflects upon himself for 140 seconds likening himself to the greatest QB of all-time & 7-time Super Bowl Champion Tom Brady while “Fashion Killa” talks about smoking the loudest of loud. “Bottega Bag” shows off the $300 he has tucked away in a bag from the Italian luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta while “Daddy’s Little Girl” links up with ATL Jacob for an ode to his daughter Rian.

Toom of Vanguard Music Group mixes a guitar & some hi-hats together for “Can’t Feel My Face” getting high until his face becomes numb while “Fabo” talks about turning your whole block into halos. “Trust Myself” confesses that he feels like he can’t even trust himself at times while “Red Shirt” talks about his pockets falling in love with the cake. The final bonus track “Fell in Luv” samples “Swangin’ & Bangin’” by E.S.G. for him to run it onto the top.

Not gonna beat around the bush & admit that it took me a while to get into Key Glock since I was more of a Dolph fan up until Glockcoma 2 began to earn the respect of many including myself. Glockaveli as far as a major label debut goes speaks volumes about Glock’s dominance & staying power in the rap game carrying on the solid reputation for carrying entire projects on his own with no features needed enhancing the gritty street-centric bars & handpicked production that made him blow.

Score: 4/5
