Young, Broke & Infamous

Gritty, sample-heavy boom bap from a young MC with everything to prove. Dusty basement production meets technical, rapid-fire lyricism and raw ambition.

Find on Amazon

The sound of a future star rapping like his life depends on it from a Maryland basement.

An urgent and hungry blend of technical bravado and basement-recorded vulnerability.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The relentless, unpolished double-time flow on Stain in the Game that serves as a mission statement.
The soulful, crackling vinyl sample introduction to Young Sinatra that established his career-long alter ego.
The vulnerable narrative shift during Growing Pains where the technical bravado drops for genuine storytelling.
