I never want to stand between the people and dopeness so I'll make this as short and sweet as possible. Drekidd walks the line between making meaningful music and enjoyable music (does there even have to be a line?) as well as anyone. So if you dug "City of Champs" you're going to dig the hell out of his new project "Liberation". Listen and download...
From his "City of Champs" mixtape to the recent "Muhammad Ali" video Drekidd's quickly becoming a go-to young emcee for me, largely because he possesses that unique ability to not only truly say something in his rhymes, but make your head nod while he does it. New release "American Dream" is a case in point and then some. Listen and download...
RefinedHype regulars should be familiar with Drekidd by now - he's the west coast up-and-comer that dropped off "Muhammad Ali" and the "City of Champs" project - so after one listen to new release "Lights Out" you'll know that it's one of the best tracks he's done to date. Listen and download...
While claims that Muhammad Ali was "the first rapper" are interesting but misguided, there's no doubt that the man could spit with the best of them, and that he had more swagger than any rapper who ever lived. So it's only fitting that L.A. native Drekidd, who we last heard from on his "City of Champs" mixtape, pays tribute to the man on new release, the aptly-titled "Muhammad Ali". Listen and download...
