They say that rap has changed and they also want to know how the pioneers like John Wick AKA KMG feel about all of that- he prides himself in the fact that he pioneered trap music to what it is today; delivering some anthemic jams spread over some hard-hitting and fascinating beats while also paying homage to the true gangsta rap of the 90s. This rap maestro hailing from Chicago has been reminding the rap world of how real rap felt like and he really doesn’t miss on his lyrical ability- coming through with stupendous and cutting-edge lyrical energy like how you like it in your favorite rap jams.
With his age comes the experience and you will find that overwhelmingly stunning in all of his records as he combines that aura of mastery with an inborn innate charisma to design groundbreaking releases in the rap sound! Talking of groundbreaking; his “Paid Niggaz” is one exceptional example where he goes all in and reminds the hip-hop roster that he is a force to be reckoned with!
There is remarkable style and fashion in this gem of a rap tune- the gunshot introductory percussion demands a listener’s attention and the ensuing old school draped percussive beats take a listener to sometime back in Chicago when the 90s and 00s rap music was playing in the stereo- kids playing some basketball, some cops walking around the neighborhood and some youths chatting around a corner. It’s almost as if “I’m still Dre” is playing all over again on your radio!
KMG displays his lyrical stunner as he delivers some educative bars that are street smart and all about elevation- he displays all the exceptional skills of a rap inventor with his fresh and original bars that keep a listener invested! MATRIX does not disappoint on his part, making a killing off of this smash hit with his equal knife-edge lyrical wordplay and stunning innovation in rap fluidity.
This is an ageless record that will feel the same way a decade from now and that is what separates it from the average rap releases on the market today which is anthems not more than one week- after which everybody forgets about them!
