The new Def Jam signee faces haunting reminders of past mistakes on "In My Penny's"

Since signing with Def Jam, Maxo, not to be confused with Maxo Kream out of Houston, has released a series of standalone singles, the latest of which was given its rightful passage as a full-fledged music video. Before we get into unpacking the ever-nostalgic "In My Penny's," why not spend a moment bringing ourselves up to speed on the artist at hand.

The Los Angeles rapper made a name for himself after associating himself with bedroom producers like Swarvy, who interestingly enough fled to City of Angels a short while ago, to make his "Bandcamp" aspirations a reality.

Together, they managed to buoy the momentum Maxo garnered off his SMILE EP in 2018, produced entirely by LastNameDavid, who gave the record a distinct "atmospheric perspective" in sound - as did Swarby for Maxo's latest jumpoff "In My Penny's," a song garnering him a stylish new video, to go with his participation medal.

Quotable Lyrics:

Ayy, I'ma change this world, let me spark my weed
I’m a blessing to the dirt, let me drop my seed
‘Member smoking on my lonely, tryna live too fast
I got homies in the pen that regret they past
Back when you copped your first hammer with the tape on the grip.
