Back in My Prime

Soul-sampled luxury rap that trades frantic energy for a seasoned, heavy-lidded confidence. Harlem street wisdom delivered over warm, dusty production.

It's Jim Jones sounding like he's rapping from the back of a Maybach with a glass of expensive cognac.

A seasoned, late-night confidence that feels both gritty and expensive.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The way the soul vocal loop on track 2 provides a velvet cushion for the gravelly delivery.

The sudden, sharp percussion crack on Gunshot that cuts through the atmospheric haze.

The reflective, lower-register storytelling on Status Update that feels like a private conversation.
