ICTWAT is a producer/rapper based out of Chicago. When you say Chicago, you think of Drill music artists like Chief Keef, King Louis, Lil Herb… but FENDI is nothing like that. His sound is very melody based with snapping snares, hard hitting kicks and trunk shaking 808′s.
The first time I heard of ICYTWAT, I fell in love with the bells and tropical melodies over hard beats. ICYTWAT’s collaboration with fellow Divine Council member $ILKMONEY’s “PS42WW$” was the first track I heard. After that I instantly downloaded his tape “Dior Junts” and is still one of my favorite projects. He has released more work since then like his “STAIN EP” and “WET TWAT”. Go check out his Soundcloud!
LORD FUBU & CAPTAIN KREEP
Lord Fubu, a young producer from South Carolina and his apprentice Captain Kreep are two producers who have been in my daily music playlists. These guys stay busy! Fubu and Kreep have a very special sound, it is best described as a wavy, bouncy and smooth vibe. Every track has amazing kicks and very soothing melodies. Go check out Lord Fubu & Captain Kreep on Soundcloud, new beats almost everyday!
Yung Pinch is a young rapper from Cali. Recently he released a tape called “#4EVERHEARTBROKE”. You can hear that Pinch is influenced by the Atlanta sound. On the song “No Good” the Atlanta rapper Key! really enhances the Atlanta feel of autotune like vocals and thumping 808′s. The song allready has 85k plays on soundcloud, people are definitely catching the wave. The vibe that Yung Pinch brings to the table is really something to keep an eye on, this boy has just started! Go follow his Soundcloud.
Gvvaan is a rapper from Atlanta and member of the Bleudope Wreckncrü. I stumbled upon his profile whilst browsing on soundcloud and he had release a new song called “BONE” with another rapper called “MOODY”. I was bouncing from the second the song started. After hearing “BLOODSPORT” produced by Awful Records member LuiDiamonds, I was sold and I have been listening to this guy since then. His sound reminds me of Outkast alot, with the funky beats and good flow and bars. You should follow him because of his refreshing sound and I can only predict that his upcoming releases will be outstanding. His Soundcloud is full of gems.
The multi talented artist YAH WAV based out of Florida is someone who has been focussing on creating his own sound. If you want to hear what YAH WAV sounds like you should listen to his track “Slo Mo”. That was my first encounter with his music and It threw me into this dark, melancholy, turn-up mood. Expect deep bass, rolling hi hats and smooth kicks. Go follow his Soundcloud, you will not be disappointed.
As expected I made a little DJ-Set to go with it. Check it out here.
