Boston rapper Black EL has been one of the most consistent under-the-radar acts of the past few years. ‘Lonely’ keeps the streak going. With Victor Radz & SXMPLELIFE on the production, the trio create a wavy record with just the right bit of bounce. It’s kush clouds and smooth raps. It’s what EL does best; pairing his laidback flow with…

Black EL and Durkin’s chemistry is well documented (see ‘Garcia Vega,’ ‘Silver Surfer’ and ‘Do Not Disturb’). Anytime the producer and emcee connect, you know you’re going to get a great tune. Reiterating this fact once more comes ‘Another Dose’. Durkin brings a smooth space-wave soundscape that EL is at home on. As we’ve come to expect from Black EL,…

The production gives this track a smokey ephemeral flavor, but it is no way stripped down, or basic. It reminds me of a foggy summer morning, that magic time when it is bright without the sun, cruising on an empty highway just before everyone is out to rush. Black EL definitely makes it feel like he is taking his time…

Mixing clever wordplay, personal storytelling and his signature laid-back flow. The hook takes this one to the top with a relatable and smooth sound guaranteed to have…

Black EL’s debut project is finally here! If you’re a frequent reader of our site you’ve probably heard a couple of his tracks already (‘Garcia Vega’, ‘Golden Child’, ‘Do Not Distrub’ ). If not, it’s about time you get familiar with the Boston rapper. His Space Wave sound is as smooth as warm butter on popcorn and just as hard to…

From ’95 Maxima’ to ‘Garcia Vega’ and ‘Golden Child’ every time they get together it’s a guaranteed wavey smash.
