The streets have felt Hoodrich Pablo Juan's across this year, even if he's been incarcerated. The former 1017 rapper was arrested on RICO charges in 2021 but he's steadily released music since then. At the top of the year, he shared Designer Dope Boyz -- his follow-up to 2020's Master Sensei 2.
As the holidays approach and the year comes to an end, the rapper delivered a brand new project to close out 2021, appropriately titled, Free Hood. Clocking in a runtime of a bit under half an hour, the 11-song project is entirely held down by Hoodrich Pablo Juan on his own. Hoodrich's ear for infectious trap production takes center stage while he brings fans through his world -- the good and the bad.
