Champaign emcee $imba P gets "lost inside the rage" on his newest EP 'Remember the $.'
On the opening track "Rage", over a hard hitting beat, $imba says he's been wasting too time and feeling stressed out which caused him to drop out of school. The rambunctious beat makes Simba feel at home on the opening track with the hard bass and fitting snares.
On the following track "IDEFK," the listener gets PARTYNEXTDOOR vibes, bringing more airy production and heavy bass featuring other artists such as VLAD and DOPEBohemian. On tracks two and three, $imba P and DOPEBohemian have seemed to develop a chemistry as they go back and forth on airy production together showing that they may be a promising duo for the future.
$imba P closes out the EP with high energy on the vibrant track "Green Egg n Ham" also featuring fellow comrade VLAD and extreme 808s. More hard hitting production and fast rapping lyrics here. Make sure to keep an eye out for $imba P. - Steven Mainzer
The EP opens up with “Rage,” which is the darkest track on the project. Simba is caged up on this song, as he is having trouble facing his feelings when the drugs wear off. He muses on wanting to rage over a cloudy, menacing beat.
On the 2nd track, “Green Eggs n Ham,” $imba will stop at nothing in the pursuit of dollar signs. The beat knocks on this one, as there’s a grumbling piano loop and a frightening vocal sample that shows up throughout.
The 3rd joint, “IDEFK,” is a slow-moving banger soaked in auto-tune. There’s an interesting dichotomy on this track between the laid back vibe and aggressive, gritty feel in the lyrics.
The closing song, “Jig,” is a lo-fi trap jam that has a nocturnal vibe. This song is perfect for a slow midnight cruise.
$imba P kept it simple on this project. Though it’s just 4 tracks in length, the tracklist here consists of nothing but bangers. “Remember The $” is definitely a project that will have your head knocking.
“Remember The $” is now available on Soundcloud. - Ryan Rosenberger
