Hip-hop music comes faster than any other genre. It's not uncommon for a rapper to drop upwards of three projects a year and while that's great, it becomes increasingly hard to stay on top of it. 'The Rap Wrap' is our attempt to keep you in the know on the weekly. This week, we're giving you fresh Kwame and a hot one from Stormzy plus more.
Kwame - STOP KNOCKIN @ MY DOOR
Kwame is yet to disappoint and the first drop off a forthcoming EP is another point on the board. He raps over a chopped and screwed soulful beat recalling College Dropout Kanye.
Stormzy - Wiley Flow
Stormzy is on fire right now and he stoked that on Sunday night with a surprise drop. Wiley Flow sees him tip his hat to the grime legend while also fitting in a few flexes of his own.
Lara Andallo - 180 (Feat. Lil Spacely)
Sydney R&B newcomer Lara Andallo has dropped a slippery new R&B tune that recruits fellow local rapper Lil Spacely. The pair give us a nostalgic throwback vibe with chemistry reminiscent of Ja Rule and Ashanti. Yes, that's a huge compliment.
Jacquees (Feat. Young Thug & Gunna) - Verify
Three of rap's greatest melody makers come together for an understated R&B jam that packs a late night punch. Thug is having a golden period right now and it's hard to go past his verse.
Danny Brown - Best Life
Danny Brown is gearing up for the release of his new LP uknowwhatimsayin? and everything he's dropping is A-grade. This latest revolves around some rich Q-Tip production and some ever-so-slightly off-kilter Brown bars.
Princess Nokia - Sugar Honey Ice Tea (S.H.I.T)
Princess Nokia is back with her first single of the year and she's not playing around. Sugar Honey Ice Tea (S.H.I.T) may be her most confident yet. It's a brassy, full-bodied cut that calls out domestic abusers, racists and bigots. An underrated genius.
