Icewear Vezzo Joins Rising Chicago Rapper Prince Hotboi On New Single
Prince HotBoi is bubbling up out of Chicago right now. Though no project out right now on streaming services, he’s delivered a consistent stream of music in the past few years and clearly gearing up to do some big things. 2019’s “Let Me Find Out” has been bumping and recently unleashed his collaboration with DJ Milticket called, “6 For 6.” Now, he’s back with his latest offering, “211” ft. Icewear Vezzo. The two rappers deliver chilling Midwestern flows on this one, delivering street-centric bars over the boisterous bass.
“It was cool, and actually one of my first challenges musically. All I kept saying was, ‘I can’t let Vezz out rap me I gotta keep up.’ It was a dope experience and we had good chemistry in studio on a DJ Milticket beat Detroit style with bangin 808’s,” Prince HotBoi said about the song in a statement.
Check the song out below.
Quotable Lyrics
Got a line in Kentucky back to the O
Fucked around and found a plug in the country, bitch I’m the GOAT
Pro tuck, got 40 up in the coat
Real n***a pressed the line, I got shooters ready to go

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”
The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.
The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.
Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.

Devan Ibiza adds soul and reflection on new release “Portland”
With “Portland,” Devan Ibiza creates a warm, thoughtful, atmospheric hip-hop record rooted in boom-bap’s deep, reflective energy. Soulful production and introspective mood make it a quiet moment of thought rather than a distraction.
“Portland” embodies classic hip-hop. Boom-bap gives it a rhythmic foundation, and warm, soulful production draws listeners in. This beat is perfect for contemplation, letting emotion and thought flow.
The single’s mood adds interest. Devan Ibiza values subtlety and atmosphere over loudness and trends. The song’s restraint is its strength. Late-night thoughts, personal memories, and quiet realizations make “Portland” contemplative.
