All hail the CCC. Cleveland’s KEYEL have crafted one of the aurally richest, heavily replayable hip-hop releases of the year with CLVLND.CTY.CNQRS. The three-MC trio of Holy, PS/Pablo Amor and Twizz with Eso on the tables recall the integrated flows of Slum Village, but with an in-house beat flavor that’s a little more psychedelic-tinged, tape-warped; that grimey, dirty, funky stuff. CCC’s an incredibly cohesive dive into the mind of a collective wholly in their zone – from the down-low menace of “Stack” to the breezy, romantic “Freak On“. Check out lead cut “My Way” and grab the album over at the KEY’s BandCamp – you’ll be happy you did.
