Atlanta’s next rap star is back. Kenny Mason returns to follow up his debut with Angelic Hoodrat: Supercut. The twelve-track efforts picks up where its predecessor left off fusing rap, trap, grunge, and rock. Kenny’s diversity and style offer a little bit of something for everyone.
Kenny Mason is at his best when he’s getting straight to the raps. No-nonsense cuts like ‘Rih’ and ‘Fasho’ put Kenny’s lyrical abilities at the forefront. The former pairs a haunting and bass-heavy hypnotic backdrop as he goes off with lyrics like, “My partna’ pop a Perc’ and pick off a person/ I can spot ’em lurkin’, bitch I’m alert/ This choppa crop a perfect picture in person/ Fuck a copper, cop a pistol and murk him/ Cobra Kai, I kick this shit ’til it hurt ya/ Buy my bitch a pistol before a Birkin.” The razor-sharp flow and punches prove that the Zone 3 artist can go bar for bar with the best out. Not fully convinced? Listen to him do more than hold his own alongside Denzel Curry & Freddie Gibbs on ‘A+’ and ‘Much Money’ respectively.
Fans of his aggressive rock-leaning style will love the guitar-heavy cuts ‘Pay Ball’ and ‘Pup.’ Further broadening the sonic palette, Kenny gets even more experimental and downtempo on ‘Titan’ and ‘Breathe Again.’ Despite moving between genres the sonic atmosphere remains consistent throughout Angelic Hoodrat: Supercut with a dark and gripping sound carrying through. The bars are hard, honest, and raw. It’s a fitting follow-up that showcases Kenny Mason’s immense potential.
