IAMGAWD & ILL City bring lethal bars w/ new release “City xf Gawd”
To understand what the new wave in Chicago is is to really embrace that while the goal is create more unity and collaboration, there’s no room for being selfish or down talking the amazing community being built in the city right now. Artists and curators are working hard to make sure that the community organizing, the quality of collaboration, and most importantly of all the music is uplifting that Chicago is the mecca of creation. With that being said the artists leading this wave are for none of the nonsense. They are so polished with the bars we feel bad for anyone that want smoke with these emcees. One of those artists making all of this look easy is the all powerful IAMGAWD..
IAMGAWD has a way of making you feel the good, bad, and in between of our cities way of life with his bars and song structure. This new project is such a great example of that..
“City xf Gawd” is a lethal eight record project that has some of the most soul piercing bars coming out so far this year. IAMGAWD has this incredible way of reminding the world that Chicago is not anything to play with. From shouting out his peers to explaining the inner workings of how the trenches work mentally and physically. With insane production coming from ILL City and features from Vic Spencer, A.M. Early Morning, The Lil People, Aakeem Eshu, & GRIFFEN IAMGAWD gives us a one of the best projects so far for 2025 and we are loving it..
Our favorite records to play in the office are “Living Nightmares”, “Chicago Don’t Raise No Hoes ft A.M. Early Morning & Vic Spencer”, “City xf Gawd”, & “Been About That ft the Lil People”..
Take a listen and let us know what you think..
