Souls of Mischief

A masterclass in West Coast jazz-rap, blending a hypnotic Billy Cobham sample with intricate four-man lyrical weaves about the bittersweet passage of time.

93 til Infinity is the sonic equivalent of a Polaroid slowly developing in the afternoon sun. While their West Coast contemporaries were leaning into the aggressive, synth-heavy funk of G-Funk, Souls of Mischief looked toward the ethereal textures of jazz to document their transition from adolescence to adulthood. The result is an album that feels suspended in time, capturing a specific Oakland summer that somehow feels universal. It is music for the quiet moments between the chaos, defined by a sense of brotherhood and the looming realization that youth is fleeting.

Moments Worth Listening For
The moment the Billy Cobham Heather sample loops for the first time, establishing the hypnotic, ethereal mood.
The seamless hand-off between A-Plus and Phesto where the rhyme scheme continues uninterrupted across four different voices.
The final chorus fade-out where the 93 til infinity refrain lingers like a ghost over the cooling jazz chords.
