"I hide hooch in my boot I'm a cheap date" Philly's own Zilla Rocca has steadily been dropping gems for years, showing off his trademark style of Noir Rap. Always a fan of off beat samples and dusty drums, the title of this track sums up his sound well. Smooth and brutal without being a contradiction if that makes sense. Over a guitar loop and some clutch vocal chops Rocca is given the perfect sonic tapestry to deliver a story about style, despair, unsavory characters and his own personality traits - some to be proud of some not so much. Vivid with imagery and spit in a slow flow to rival the best it's hypnotic and captivating.
