Hopsin lays the debauchery on thick, before pulling the rope-a-dope.

Hopsin has long captivated a cult of loyal followers. Though his outward appearance may be alarming to those unfamiliar with "gothic chic," Hop has proven himself a viable commodity in a cast of eclectic hip-hop characters. For some context, Hop recently found himself namedropped by the legendary Eminem on "Fall," a move that yielded a particularly excited response from the "Ill Mind" scribe. In the wake of the honor, Hop dedicated himself to crafting a new project, a taste of which has since come to manifest on "Lowkey." 

Arriving with an accompanying video, Hop finds himself dabbling in contemporary musical trends, delivering an Autotune-drenched melody for the chorus. Yet the glossy veneer quickly malleates, as Hop finds himself ripping into the game's top heap dwellers with a not-quite scathing reflection; perhaps this is a peek into the inevitable "Ill Mind" continuation? In any case, Hop continues to prove his value as a wordsmith, stringing together phrases with peak efficiency. Check out "Lowkey" now. 

Quotable Lyrics

If I was comfy, I'd say "fuck rap", because life is complete
Surprise I'm hungry, rappers looking like fries and lunch meat
Damn you got the hoes, you got a grill, you making mills huh 
When you be flexing you looking so icy that I get the chills son
I seen you pull up in your whip and you stopped but somehow the wheels spun 
Who is the plug for the drugs? Tell me where you get the pills from
