This week we at Nefarious Supply are gifting you all with another list of vastly talented and woefully underrated artists. NOVA comes in hot with “WHEN THE CD SKIPS” a short yet hard-hitting melodic banger. On the track the artist discusses his irritation with the world and how he’s had it with the nonsense, all whilst sliding smoothly over smooth 808s. Lule follows up with “HAHA” a jumpy, money-flaunting trap beat. He flexes his gains while laughing all the way, filling the chorus with his mirth and the beat with beautiful autotuned crooning. He makes sure his listeners know that you can’t go big on big time, and the track solidifies that fact. Josif Grey, a NS veteran who we’ve had the pleasure of interviewing, comes in with flawless artistry on his “Finesse Freestyle”, slowing down the vibes as he speaks to his female audience over a harp-sprinkled, lowkey. He illustrates all the places he’s willing to take her, how lowkey and personal he’s willing to be with her in order for them to both grow, and how pressed he is to show her off, with the flair only an artist of his caliber can provide. “Cocktails in Spain” continues the chill vibes, adding the spice of an upbeat melody. Offering to fly her out to Spain to get away from the stress of life, LoverboyBass reassures his girl that “You ain’t gonna have to look to no more, L-O-V-E’s right here.” “444” is one of the more fuller-length tracks on our underground hitlist. Featuring Wooski, the beat is signified by a beautiful guitar riff in the background, delicately playing atop the heavy 808s below. MARI TRUST ME slides on the beat with braggadocios bars whilst Wooski uses autotune as his musical weapon, slaughtering the beat with fact-dropping lyricism wrapped up in a singer’s vocal prowess. Aari Price, another newcomer to the hitlist, slows down the vibes once more with M.O.M. He rides a chill 808 swapping and connecting bars and thoroughly explains the meaning for this track’s acronym, “Money on my Mind”.
With an assortment of sounds that come together for a beautiful audio picturesque, KissedKilled dances around on “Come Here With Me” speaking on topics of vacation, summer love, and jealousy. It’s a short track, but an exemplary one,. Production-wise and lyrically, it hits just right. Hyping the vibes once more, TOPHILLFREDDO crashes in with “Triple Threat”, with guest appearances from DiorWhore and 1990Bishop, as well as production by the Danny Wolf himself, this track just can’t lose. Boastful bars and ostentatious production wraps this track in a neatly electric bow. Stephen Jailon, another NS veteran comes through with a new track to add to his impressive roster. “Type of Shit” starts out with infectious adlibs, followed by head-nodding lyricism and connective bars dropped all over a preserved trap beat that inspirits Jailon’s voice to shine even further. The song chops and screws towards the end for a smooth finish. 451 is next with “Sex Me Up”. The artist feeds his audience with deep synths and beautifully laid 808s underneath. 451 talks about subjects ranging from trust, sex, and staying true to his girl despite all the other distractions blowing the two of them every which way. In the artist’s mind, it’s him and her, no one else, a mindset we can all get behind. As if one banger wasn’t enough, 1990Bishop comes in hot again with another fire track. “Get Me Started”. Produced by Ronnie Choc, a long-time collaborator with the artist, Bishop follows the customary trend of the artist before him, where he speaks on loyalty, past misgivings, and being without options in a way wayward world. THREE65’s “addiction” dials the tone down a few notches. He confesses about his struggle with addiction when it comes to love as well as recreational drugs. In all aspects of his life, the artist has seemed to have dealt with addiction to some degree. The track, however, focuses mostly on his struggles with a recalcitrant woman who he’s in love with, for better or worse. Omari Night, yet another NS vet, grooves his way through the melodic masterpiece that is “Nasty”.The track features JXDYHILL and the two go back and forth, fantasizing about the whims and whiles of the girls that have caught their eye, all over a jovially chill 808 and a playful melody. TWNTYFOUR, an artist you’ve probably seen on the last Underground Playlist, is back with his new track “Oh Why”. Rapping over an instrumental created by SYKO, TWNTYFOUR speaks his confusion and anger about the distrust his partner has for him as well as his come up from the day he started to where he is today.
ROSERY HILLS asks the girl in question to tell him something he doesn’t know about her on “Maria Freestyle”. On the track he asks over a light synth beat, he flows endlessly at one point on the track and doesn’t stop for a full 30 seconds, before falling back into the subject matter of the track, which is giving him a chance to prove himself to her and vice versa. A reverse aspect hits the beat towards the end, finishing the immaculate track off nicely. Our last track on the playlist is ALVINISLAND’s self-inspired track “ALVIN WORLD”. The celebratory track boasts of luxurious cars, unfaithful partners, and proclaimed greatness. ALVINISLAND closes out our tracklist with a bouncy and satisfying end, with playful 808s and flute additions, the track wraps a neat bow on our 4th Underground Playlist.
