GANGWAY
Since LAZER DIM 700 sparked excitement and debate with late 2024’s *KEEPIN IT CLOUDY*, his momentum has hardly slowed. Scarcely three months after dropping the subsequent *Sins Aloud*, the prolific Georgia native returns with the like-minded *GANGWAY*. His signature style—a fidelity-fractured mélange of intense sub-bass frequencies, hypnotic synth sequences, and free-associative bars—persists across a baker’s dozen new tracks. On cuts like “Pro Mag” and “Fart 808,” his approach remains as radical as when he initially emerged—rapid-fire lines delivered with a casual drawl. His connection to Atlanta’s historic trap past is anything but vestigial on “MIDDLE OF CAR,” “Protect da brand,” and “Shoutout dat boy,” each track begging for a classic mixtape DJ drop. Indeed, once listeners get past the extremity of the noisy instrumentals, his links to 2010s hip-hop steadily reveal themselves like little mysteries, with echoes of Harlem’s A$AP and Southside Chicago drillers creeping through “Pints” and “OXY.”
