[Hip-Hop] King Chip – Vortex (ft. Kid Cudi & Pusha T)

King Chip
Vortex (ft. Kid Cudi & Pusha T)

King Chip, formerly known as Chip tha Ripper, has always been a ninja favorite for his unique brand of smooth, laid-back raps. When you add his fellow Cleveland native, Kid Cudi, to the picture the outcome never fails to be dope. On a standout from Chip’s latest mixtape, 44108, the dynamic duo, and Wicked Awesome labelmates, team up with G.O.O.D. Music’s man of the hour Pusha T for a refreshingly original track.

On “Vortex,” Cudi and Dot da Genius (aka WZRD) team up for a psychedelic, guitar and piano-laden beat setting the tone perfectly for a song about a dangerous love interest. Cudder creates one of his trademark hooks taking his vocals up an octave from what we’re used to. Pusha T continues his relentless streak of vicious bars and King Chip continues the maturation of his style delivering with the confidence of a vet.

Enjoy this great track above and, if you’re digging it as much as we are, make sure to grab the whole 44108 project, which includes a number of other notable features, for free HERE.

[New] WZRD – Brake

Hip-hop star Kid Cudi has teamed up with producer Dot Da Genius to form WZRD, short for ‘wizard’. Their aim: to bring back energetic, rebellious and vibrant punk rock, but without any swears. It’s a big challenge, but judging by the taut vocals and guitar on ‘Brake’, they’ve made an intriguing leap into punk, and one that’ll garner a lot of attention, for the better or for the worse. The album, ‘WZRD’, will be out on January 30.
