‘Brown Body Bags’ is the latest long play from the two rappers, and keeps hip-hop alive
On Body Bag Ben and Daniel Son’s new release, the two craft a vortex of fluid sound. Their latest, “Brown Body Bags” features a ride with purpose and toothsome flavours, charting a new course for lyricism and style.
Review and Verdict
Hip-hop has had to tread carefully in recent months due to an aging sound profile. From an overuse of recording assets to clout chasing trend eaters, the genre has entered choppy waters.
Remaining true to oneself has been an oversight for contemporary artists, but not for Body Bag Ben and Daniel Son. On their latest endeavour, “Brown Body Bags”, the two ignore conveyor-belt methods in favour of modernity.
Framing authentic motifs with sharp cuts of brutal finesse, they snap through foundational rhyme schemes with organic executions. Without fear, they dive deep into a world fit for rap kings and aficionados seeking a technically proficient shockwave of penmanship.
Its brooding matter is further textured by features including Baltimore’s Jay Royale, RJ Payne, Kobe Honeycutt, and Eto, whose contributions add weight without deviating too far.
Aligning themselves with dusty drum etiquette, they leave a benchmark for alternative acts to rise to. Skating with preternatural sonic frameworks, they avoid the persuasions of sounding long in the tooth and shape their own signature in the cast iron of rap.
Top Songs: “Diagnostics”, “Triple XL”, “War Cry”.
