RIP Nick Blixky.

22Gz affiliate Nicki Blixky was killed in a shooting in May just hours after announcing his debut project. He was killed at the age of 21 before his career was about to take off. But in the wake of his passing, his team and his estate made it clear that his voice was one that needed to be heard. This morning, they released his debut project, Different Timin'.  With the sounds of Brooklyn drill serving as his canvas, he brings together a melodic flow and a more aggressive delivery to get his point across. 

For a debut project, the features are kept to a minimum with YBN Almighty Jay joining him on the "Drive The Boat" remix. Liquez also holds it down on "London To Brooklyn."

Peep the project below.
