Buffalo emcee & singer Elcamino staying busy along with his third EP of 2024 & the seventeenth of his discography general. Blowing up in 2017 off his self-titled EP with Griselda Information, his profile more and more grew after being adopted up by Strolling on Water mixtape in the summertime of 2018 together with dropped 2 studio albums & a couple of EPs the yr after that. They Spit on Jesus proved to be a nicely obtained Black Soprano Household Information debut changing into the primary Camino undertaking that I had lined since On the third Day & that very similar to No Weapon Fashioned In opposition to Me was an enchancment over a number of the materials we’ve gotten from him in current reminiscence. 6 months after having Actual Unhealthy Man produce The Recreation is the Recreation adopted by Unwell Tone lately producing Constructed for Cuban Hyperlinks named after Raekwon’s iconic solo debut Solely Constructed 4 Cuban Linx…produced by RZA, Meech seeking to begin the ultimate quarter of the yr flexing his Millionaire standing.
“Cash Mayweather” units the tone of what’s to come back with it’s luxurious increase bap instrumental & the lyrics tryna trigger a head-on rainstorm whereas “Chill Lord” kinda provides off a psychedelically dusty vibe feeling extra like an precise track quite than an interlude speaking about your entire whole fashion being animated. “Paid in Full” works in some vibraphone sampling combined with kicks & snares admitting no less than 10 folks within the Griselda camp have develop into wealthy previous to “Gambino Household” hopping over a cultured beat seeking to do massive enterprise.
Beginning the ultimate leg of the EP, “The Gold Elephant” returns to the increase bap with extra of a soulful flare letting y’all know that this rap shit can do you proper since he ended up consuming after a number of years of negligence whereas the beat on “Maybach Muzik” most undoubtedly feels impressed by Rick Ross permitting Elcamino to speak about having a starvation for extra ever since he was a youngin’. “Wu Stage” finishes Millionaire on a drumless word with it’s crooning pattern & discussing not being structured to be mad at one’s private selections.
Camino’s been teasing Millionaire for the previous 3 weeks or so & solely a month after Constructed for Cuban Hyperlinks, I do hear some enchancment from him in comparison with the EP that he gave us again in September though I did very a lot get pleasure from it & could possibly be my 2nd favourite EP of the three that we’ve gotten from him behind The Recreation is the Recreation. The manufacturing continues to stability increase bap & drumless so Elcamino can painting the gangsta way of life for under 16 minutes.
