With the rest of The Sauce Factory, the Houston MC flows with ease over hard-hitting beats.

Sauce Walka is coming back with a vengeance on his latest project, the long and hard-hitting DAT BOY DEN. Including past singles like "ONLY FANS," the new collection of tracks is 18 songs long and features a lot of the 33-year-old MC's closest collaborators within The Sauce Factory. Moreover, these are Sauce WoodWinnin, Sauce Gohan, Money Man, 44 Mike Deezy, BIG30, Peezy, and Freeway. They all work quite well together, bringing a similarly aggressive and raunchy energy to each track they appear on. Overall, for fans of hardened street rap with a crisp presentation, this might just fall right up your alley.

Of course, projects like these have their lyrical limitations and considerations, but it doesn't make these deliveries or vivid images any less impactful. For example, "7 In A Cup" switches wildly between money talk, gunplay, cars, romantic partners, and all the other aspects of mainstream street rap lyricism these days. Still, the subtle piano keys in the background (which also accentuate many other tracks) lend it some more compelling sounds to work with. As such, Sauce Walka delivered on a simple premise that's brought to life by his own energy.

To absolutely no one's surprise, 6ix9ine is nowhere to be found on his tracklist, and probably never will be. If that confused you or you're wondering what that has to do with the Houston rapper, that's because he said that not even a billion dollars could convince him to work with Tekashi. He thinks he can do his style much better without "snitching," and with energetic projects like these, he's certainly making a case. If you haven't heard DAT BOY DEN yet, find it on your preferred streaming service and peep the tracklist below.

Born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Gabriel treasures the crossover between his native reggaetón and hip-hop news coverage, such as his review for Bad Bunny’s hometown concert in 2024. But more specifically, he digs for the deeper side of hip-hop conversations, whether that’s the “death” of the genre in 2023, the lyrical and parasocial intricacies of the Kendrick Lamar and Drake battle, or the many moving parts of the Young Thug and YSL RICO case. Beyond engaging and breaking news coverage, Gabriel makes the most out of his concert obsessions, reviewing and recapping festivals like Rolling Loud Miami and Camp Flog Gnaw. He’s also developed a strong editorial voice through album reviews, think-pieces, and interviews with some of the genre’s brightest upstarts and most enduring obscured gems like Homeboy Sandman, Bktherula, Bas, and Devin Malik.
