Hexxx – “Endless Night” review

The 4th extended play from Los Angeles, California emcee Hexxx has finally arrived. Coming up a decade ago off his debut extended play Samhain, he would go on to follow it up 3 years later with his 2nd EP West Coast Wicked Shit prior to his full-length debut Demon Season & the sophomore effort Tales of a Cursed G becoming west coast wicked shit classics in their own rights. Coming off the Suerte EP last summer, he’s coming back for an audio description of an Endless Night over 2 months after Persephone ended Mercedes Moné’s reign as CMLL Mundial Femenil Campeon & a couple weeks since Templario became a 2-time MLW World Middleweight Champion.

“Rock, Paper, Cemetery” reemerges out the dusk to talk about this shit being hereditary to him whereas “Crash Out” goes for a trap vibe admitting that he’s been feeling like a ghost drowning his pain away. After an interlude, “The Real” talks about his future plans of staying independent & shouting out the legitimate who’re still with him just before things take a darker turn instrumentally to discuss feeling like a “Freight Train” as of late.

After the “Ghost Dog” interlude, “Westside Samurai” keeps the west coast wicked shit coming talking about it taking a lot of pain for him to get the kinda shine he has while “Loco” gets on his g shit over a ratchet beat. “Entrance Theme” kinda has a Memphis-inspired atmosphere dedicating itself to all his fellow gangstas & once “Chrome Clouds” talks about keeping the wave moving, “Friday” sends it all off with a jazzy west coast outro for a weekend celebration anthem.

Despite putting out Suerte almost a whole year ago next month, Hexxx spent a great deal of 2025 taking a break from touring so he could dedicate all of this time towards making Endless Night the greatest thing he’s ever done in his career yet & I can definitely say it’s not too far behind the predecessor regarding his EPs. The production ranges from jazz rap to ratchet to Memphis rap & lyrically, the procurator of west coast wicked shit answers a few questions he’s had bubbling in his mind.

Score: 4/5

Hexxx – “Suerte” review

Los Angeles, California emcee Hexxx making a comeback after 2 years with his 3rd EP. First emerging in the underground back in the fall of 2016 off his debut EP Samhain, he would go on to follow it up 3 years later with his 2nd EP West Coast Wicked Shit prior to his full-length debut studio album Demon Season & the sophomore effort Tales of a Cursed G becoming west coast wicked shit classics in their own rights. 22 months have passed & he’s putting out Suerte without any warning preluding his upcoming 3rd LP. Also in time for the WME Group-owned TKO Group Holdings division WWE’s upcoming Worlds Collide V event with their new subsidiary Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide (AAA) purchased from the Peña–Roldán family last month featuring performers from their Anthem Sports & Entertainment-owned partner promotion Total Nonstop Action (TNA) Wrestling. Hoping that the 2nd reign of the longest reigning AAA Mega Campeon El Hijo del Vikingo doesn’t get ended so quickly by the current WWE Speed Champion Chad Gable over a week after former 2-time NXT Champion & NXT North American Champion Trick Williams became the new TNA World Champion shockingly ending Joe Hendry’s reign.

“High Noon” was a Memphis/trap intro with some lyrical content built upon the gangsta lifestyle Hexxx has made a name of himself off of whereas “Payback” works in a trap instrumental with a vocal sample to talk about the concept of revenge. “Drama Under Palm Trees” eerily keeps the trap vibes going always keeping a hammer by his side while “Street Lights” talks about what it was like for him growing up in the dark.

After an interlude from Zach Holmes of the Paramount Skydance Corporation subsidiary MTV-owned Jackass franchise, “Switchblade” pulls from the early 90s g-funk scene tryna get high & paid simultaneously while “Shoot2kill” talks about his state of mind being to hustle forever leavin’ opps flatlined. “Jin” officially concludes Suerte with 1 more trap joint assuring that he’ll crush your skull.

It’s been so long since Tales of a Cursed G came out & whatever the west coast wicked shit trailblazer has in store on his next full-length body of work, Suerte reaffirms he hasn’t lost a step after taking a year off to tour. It’s more trap-based in terms of production other than minor influences of g-funk & Memphis rap, but Hexxx is still very much embracing the gangsta rap themes only a tad bit heavier than he did on the last couple albums he put out in the earlier parts of the current decade.

Score: 4/5

Hexxx – “Tales of a Cursed G” review

This is the sophomore full-length album from Los Angeles emcee Hexxx. First emerging in the underground back in the fall of 2016 off his debut EP Samhain, he would go on to follow it up 3 years later with his 2nd EP West Coast Wicked Shit prior to becoming the first act to sign to Ouija Macc’s very own Psychopathic Records imprint Chapter 17 Records other than Ouija himself last spring by dropping the classic debut Demon Season. However, he’s returning to tell the Tales of a Cursed G.

The title track is an eerie trap opener talking about being back up in the haughhh whereas “Blade to the Neck” has a more shimmery backdrop & the hi-hats remaining as he looks to cut a motherfucker’s throat up. The instrumental on “Another Day” featuring Shaggy 2 Dope of the Insane Clown Posse fresh off the first leg of his solo tour promoting his new EP Professor Shaggs & the Quest for the Ultimate Groove goes into g-funk territory with a Maezi666 instrumental reminiscent to “You Gots to Chill” by EPMD aptly detailing another day in the lives they life, but then “Darko” goes into psychedelic trap turf getting high in the street lights looking back on the dirt nights.

Meanwhile, the uncanny beat on “Shimmy Shimmy Yah” is pretty phat so HEXXX can talk about smoking that good kush & hitting pussies with the semi prior to “Black Crown” goes for a rowdier groove thanks to Devereaux referring to himself as a killer on the frontline. “Brick” works in a chopped & screwed sample of “Murder Go Round” off the wicked clowns’ sophomore effort Ringmaster over a mind-altering trap beat talking about continuing to hit ‘em with the titular object because it is what it is just before “Blueberry R3dbull” shoots for a more straight-forward west coast hip hop sound keeping the trouble poppin’.

“The Coast” featuring Trizz flips my favorite Necro joint “Your Fuckin’ Head Split” promising to make ghosts out of anyone who fucks around with them while the woozy “Season of the Sick” reminding that he’s a man with mob ties. The penultimate track “No Rest” draws near the end of HEXXX’s sophomore effort with an energizing ballad refusing to rest no matter what the circumstances & “Paradise” ends the album with a rubbery bass-line on top of some some strings talking about being a man of mistakes.

Demon Season quickly became a modern day classic for how it embodies the west coast wicked shit & over a year later, he’s done it again on Tales of a Cursed G only a month after Darby O’Trill dropped his Chapter 17 debut Creek because we’re witnessing the label going harder than they did last year. The subject matter comes from a more personal place in comparison to the debut & the production expands on the sounds of that previous album except they ditch the boom bap undertones.

Score: 4.5/5

Hexxx – “Demon Season” review

This is the full-length debut from Los Angeles emcee Hexxx. First emerging in the underground back in the fall of 2016 off his debut EP Samhain, he would go on to follow it up 3 years later with his 2nd EP West Coast Wicked Shit & here we are another 3 years later just in time for Demon Season after becoming the first act to sign to Ouija Macc’s very own Psychopathic Records imprint Chapter 17 Records other than Ouija himself.

After the bell-heavy intro produced by Devereaux, the title track opens up the album with a trunk-rattling yet dreary instrumental shouting out all his killas whereas “Big Time” with Baldacci has a more celebratory tone to it talking about all their homies being on the rise. The way the beat on “Ruthless” pays tribute to “Deep Cover” by Dr. Dre & Snoop Dogg with a modern flip is pretty impressive as Hexxx delivers more raw gangsta raps but after the “Cruise Night” interlude, “Another Homicide” goes into boom bap territory as he viciously quenches for blood.

Meanwhile on “Villains”, we have Ouija Macc accompanying Hexxx to unnervingly declare themselves as the antagonists of this rap shit while the song “Pale Horse” with Project Born takes it back to the trap with some pianos that’re reminiscent to that of a horror flick calling out those who wanted them to fail. The penultimate track “Blood Drip” goes full-blown hyphy thanks to Shaggytheairhead to spit the wicked shit & “Cali Dreamin’” ends the album with an intoxicating confession that he’s trying not to fall in the deep end.

I really didn’t know what to expect when Ouija announced that he was beginning to sign acts to Chapter 17 & when I found out Hexxx was the first new artist, I knew he’d refine his style & that’s exactly what the fuck he does. The way he takes the classic west coast gangsta rap vibes & mixes it with the wicked shit, I haven’t heard uniquely fused together so well in a long time. Chapter 17 definitely knows what they’re doing & this is just the beginning.

Score: 4.5/5
