Hold On

Released in September 2020, Hold On is a pivotal EP in Yeat's early discography, serving as a bridge between his cloud-rap roots and the high-octane rage sound that would define his later career. Comprising four tracks - Nobu, Wassup, Money Fetish, and Geeker Day - the project was released during a period of label friction, intended to satisfy a growing fanbase while larger projects were stalled. Sonically, the EP is characterized by its use of 'Geek' terminology and a heavy reliance on melodic, auto-tuned delivery over aggressive, synth-heavy trap beats. While it was eventually removed from major streaming platforms, it remains a cult favorite on SoundCloud. The production highlights the artist's signature use of unconventional ad-libs and rhythmic vocal patterns that treat the voice as a percussive instrument. It stands as a testament to the DIY spirit of the 2020 underground rap scene.
