Yes, I know Nas dropped. I’ll probably get to that at some point, as I’m still kind of “meh” about these seven-track projects, dope or not. Yes, I know I said that Daytona was good, but my feelings still stand. However, Jay Rock also has a new project out and it’s heat.
One of the pieces of the puzzle of Redemption is a throwback-esque jam with Kendrick Lamar, “Wow Freestyle.” Taking it back to the days when “Top had the red Charger,” the duo trade bars and just have fun with the almost three-minute track. The Hit-Boy-produced track features flutes (I’m always a sucker for flutes, just like I am for dope piano melodies) and a bass-heavy production style suited for Jay Rock and Kendrick to just snap for a bit. It’s one of the standouts on a standout album, so check it out below and remember to support dope music in all its forms.
