The end of the year often prompts conversations about the best records or singles that have been released, and sometimes, artists squeeze in their offering at the 25th hour. It was just over a year ago that Russ delivered his CHOMP project where he dropped heavy bars with the help of lyrical beasts like KXNG Crooked, Benny The Butcher, Busta Rhymes, and Black Thought. The record was short but sweet, and fans couldn't get enough of not only each artist's pen game but also the praise-worthy production.
At the top of Wednesday (December 8), Russ returned with the second installment as he dropped off CHOMP 2. This time around, we have a more elongated effort stacked to the nines with artists and producers that are well-established and well-respected in the Rap Game. CHOMP 2 is just as impressive as the first and certainly deserves a back-to-back listen.
