Rugged lyricist from New York, Rome Streetz, is continuing to build off an impressive run in 2023 with Brooklyn producer Wavy Da Ghawd on Buck 50. This is the duo's first project together and it comes in the form of a six-song collection that shows how in sync these two are. It might stem from the fact that these guys have developed quite the friendship. According to an interview with Throw Up, they asked Wavy Da Ghawd how they crossed paths and begain to develop chemistry.
"In 2018, when I first moved to NYC, the first rapper I met was Rome, Rim, and Sauce Heist in the same vicinity. Ever since then I engaged by giving beats to all of them and relationships were born. These guys and many more grew to be a strong faction to my career," Wavy said. For the multi-cultural beatmaker this is his second project of the year, following an effort with Passport Rav on Bermuda Triangle.
