This is the 2nd EP from New York emcee/producer Santana Fox. Notable for being the daughter of the late Prodigy of Mobb Deep fame, she ultimately adopted in her father’s footsteps making music of her personal couple years after his premature passing placing out a handful of singles up till the full-length debut Girl Next Door. Her earlier EP Eye Candy a yr & a half in the past was an important second in her profession not just for her producing all of it by herself, however her improved lyricism too. We had been purported to get Femme Fatale final October & though it’s nonetheless not right here, She’s a Rebel! appears to be like to prelude it.
After the titular intro, the primary tune “‘Till the Angels Come” sets the tone with an eerily self-produced boom boom bap opener talking about making muhfuckas disappear without a trace whereas “Raspy Berry” promises that she’ll get revenge on a hoe within the afterlife. “Deja Vu” that includes Big Twins & Chung finds the trio over a spooky growth bap instrumental advising to not get them hyped whereas “Taboo” that includes Hus Kingpin suggests for his or her competitors to surrender.
“Daydreamin’” begins the 2nd half of the EP with Fox by speaking about getting on it like she needs it & wanting her cup to get poured up whereas “Crash Out” that includes Mijita takes a extra promiscuous tone lyrically. “Lucky Girl” that includes Pohlosweater cautions that anybody runnin’ their mouths round them will get socked & “Lip Gloss on the Blunt” ends She’s a Rebel! by speaking about trusting her instinct’s fairly than giving a fuck what anybody else thinks.
In preparation for Mobb Deep’s upcoming ninth & closing album Infinite on the brink of come out beneath Mass Appeal Records in a pair weeks, Santana Fox has delivered yet one more EP capitalizing on the inventive progress that started unraveling 18 months in the past. Her manufacturing expertise have flourished tremendously for the reason that final time we heard from her & her pen’s gotten sharper, though I personally might’ve accomplished and not using a couple company.
