ShredGang Mone has been killing the rap scene since his debut album Gangstas Move In Silence in 2016. His powerful, serious delivery makes him one of Detroit’s fiercest rhymers; also one of it’s most terrorizing forces. Each of his new releases gets the star treatment, handled with intense care because we don’t get as much music from him as we’d like. He’s back again with another doozy of a track, the powerful “Realest” that looks at the past to gain insight into the present.

“Them hard days eating noodles and them pancakes” kicks off a rousing trip into the past and look into what makes ShredGang Mone the solemn wordsmith that he is today. The track comes with production that manages to be both simple and elegant, making Mone’s words deliver in ways that really strike home with what he’s saying. The accompanying visual is simple as well, utilizing crisp colors and camera work to make Mone’s vision come to life.

It seems like a lifetime ago that “First Day Out” introduced us to a fiery Detroit spitter with a story to tell and a penchant for vivacious flows that captivated anyone fortunate enough to listen. A lifetime of success later, Tee Grizzley is the talk of the town. He’s put out a steady stream of work leading up to Activated, prepping the world to truly see the breadth of his artistry, and, now, the project has arrived in full force.

Activated is a lengthy debut; 18 tracks in total would spell disaster for some, but this is Tee Grizzley. He’ll chew up these tracks like no one is accustomed to. From Lil Yachty to Lil Pump, even to Chris Brown, Grizzley’s commitment to including the “who’s who” of hip-hop is astounding. We can’t wait to dissect how each artist fits in with Grizzley’s sound.

What are you waiting for? Head on over to iTunes and purchase Tee Grizzley’s Activated. In the meantime, check out the tracklist and some of his most recent work below.
