Curly J Is Stepping In With The “Big Dawgs”

New York has a lot of dope music coming out of the five boroughs but maybe we should start paying attention to more upstate music besides Griselda.

Hempstead rapper Curly J has been making a name for himself running up the numbers with Speaker Knockerz inspired melodic numbers like “Kappa” and “Keep it 100.”

He’s sure not lacking confidence, rapping “only been at this sh*t for a year/but imma be running the rap game.” He’s adamant about being the next “King of Melodies,” proclaiming himself as such throughout his music. 

His keen ear for melodies is evident in the numerous flows he employs in the song and he is certainly precociously adaptable. He morphs from spitter to singer over a galloping beat from producers Mektro & SAG.

Check out the video for “Big Dawgs” below. Do you think we’ll be seeing more from Curly J in the future? Let us know in the comments below.

Quotable Lyrics

My b*tch is bad and boujee with a bubble butt
Even in scrimmages still cannot run with us
N****s is jealous of me now they tearing up
I’m going hard now they thinking the heat is up
I am just getting started now i’m gearing up
N**** you still trying better give it up
I am the best to do it it ain’t clear to him
Might have to take the person who is dear to him
Hit em with Sharingan and put some fear in em
Might do the dash on n****s disappear on em

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

KYLE

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
