EverybodyHatesChris by ChrisClay

The universe has its own way of throwing everything at you and expecting you to bounce back. Rapper ChrisClay bounces back by putting together a ten-song album all about the pressures and struggles that come with being Chris. The project begins with a rainy day, a somber track titled ‘Truthbetold’ featuring Matty Wood$, owning the theme of “Everybody Hates Chris”. The album is packed with features that raise the energy of each track and compliment Chris’ style. The young artist made details a priority during the album’s production. It hosts two interludes and the transitions between songs are clean, with very little pause between beats so you can listen continuously.

The project reaches its midpoint with ‘#FreeKrime’ featuring Young Jasper. The title is a possible shoutout to New York rapper Krime Life Ca$$. The tempo steadily slows from this point, but Chris still has some surprises up his sleeve. ‘Godzilla’ featuring Anwar has one of the more experimental flows, or whispers, from the album. It will be a hit or miss for some, but it brings personality to the project; it’s not all work and no fun. ChrisClay teams up with EyeKeem for the cool, soft-trap track ‘Forfeit’, he truly shows his versatility by switching effortlessly to this sub genre. The album comes to a close via his ‘Toshas Outro’ featuring Bad Day Dre and CrashJordy, an admission of love, or at least interest, in a girl. To tie it all together, ChrisClay ends the project with the iconic lyrics from the show the project is inspired by, “everybody hates Chris”.

Testimony EP by Noutxxhang

Honesty helps wounds heal. Testimony, the six track EP by Noutxxhang, is a raw revelation of the artist’s aspirations and daily struggles. The EP only holds one feature, Maryland rapper Lil Xelly on the EP’s fourth song “Choir”. Noutxxhang experiments vocally and reveals he’s sometimes emotional, but he can’t show that side of himself, whether to guard his heart or himself from the persecution of being expressive. The EP has several producers, Bridgxs begins the project with his efforts in “Prove It” and the EP ends with a collaborative beat produced by Dani Kiyoko and Niko East. This project is surely meant for seamlessly integrating each track into your favorite playlist.

On My Mind by Dreamkite featuring Gallows

When the girl of your dreams is slipping away and all you want her to do is listen. Dreamkite and Gallows fuse together hip hop and punk in Dreamkite’s latest single “On My Mind”. This one tugs at the heartstrings and acts as a melancholy love letter. The emotional delivery creates a tone of pleading to the one you love to give you a chance, at least to explain yourself. We’ve all been there before, mistake mixed with miscommunication.
