Mumble rap gives way to boom bap

To be honest, I was a little uncertain before pressing play. Desiigner, famous mumble rapper, best known for his hit Panda and also for having been signed and then dropped by a certain Kanye West…

I was skeptical, but when you see the name Domingo On a track, you have no choice but to listen.

And what a pleasant surprise: a monstrous beat, trademark Domingo and Desiigner who decides to show the Hip-Hop world what he's really capable of. He reminds everyone why, at one point, all eyes of the globe were on him. The guy has bars and flow. He proves it time and again on this L.O.D. Freestyle.

Let's not kid ourselves, Desiigner is from BK (Brooklyn). And BK means real Hip-Hop. Add to that the fact that he grew up in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, the same one as the King of New York, Notorious BIG. It seems that Desiigner carries the DNA of his block.

It seems like a wind of change is blowing through american Hip-Hop. With the return of giants like Clipse or Mobb Deep, Lyricism and boom bap are coming back to life. At a time when rap is completely excluded from the American Billboard charts, the essence of Hip-Hop seems to be regaining strength.

Well done, Desiigner.

Come on, google Produced by Domingo. You'll understand.
