Believe us when we say CHAINEDTRACK THE DARK PRINCE is something different. Existing outside the confines of Hip-Hop’s structures and standards, this Virginian artist is paving a new lane for rap. One that merges the most fringe and alternative into the powerful realm of rhymes. In essence, that is “Love Kills.”, CHAINEDTRACK’s latest eight-track offering: a unique exploration of his unusual potential. So much can be pulled from this extended play. It hails to this post XXXtentacion-era, wherein the boundaries of Hip-Hop have been pushed. Honoring that expansion of possibility, CHAINEDTRACK slings acoustic folk, boom-bap, trap, piano ballads, and distorted acapellas across twelve minutes of run-time. All the while, this Virginia Beach native is spitting his heart out. From the banger “Isabella”, to tracks such as the riotous “She Told Me She Want To Slop!”, “No Peace”, “Isabella, My Dear Apologies”, and “I Guess There Are No Happy Endings For Those Who Have No Soul To Be Happy With.”, CHAINEDTRACK gives a slew of introspective and awe-inspiring lyrics. He speaks on heartbreak, depression, and the throws of going through everyday life; things the lot of us can relate to. Through that quality, “Love Kills.” makes a connection. A connection that gives artist like CHAINEDTRACK massive fanbases and followings. Such is in his future. So long as CHAINEDTRACK is creating this quality of music, while pushing the capacity of music entirely, he may very well be the next big thing.

Deep within a Bronx, New York asylum, you are trapped. No family, no money, nothing to call your own besides the straps of a cold straight jacket and the confining pads of your white cell. You do have something to look forward to, though: a quick dose of narcotic Hip-Hop that will set your mind ablaze. This is the reality that East Coast rapper, Xtra Overdose, creates with his adrenaline-charged release, “Viral Injection”; eight-tracks of idiosyncratic and outlandish rap. The moment this needle pierces your veins, and fluid enters your bloodstream on “Introjection”, you are bombarded with a torrent of bars. Xtra Overdose is an emcee acrobat on this intro, zipping across a bass-heavy, electro-hop beat with a flow and energy that goes unmatched. Certainly, Bronx spitter is all about his delivery; opting to attack his beats with quirky, rapid-fire rhymes throughout the project. It follows him into his boom-bap bangers, such as “What The Deal”, “My Mentality”, “Sour Apple” (feat. Lex the Hex Master), and “Dead Language”, the EP’s outro. Dux, another guest on the album, assists Xtra Overdose with the club-smash, “She’s A Freak”, and when matched with other slappers, like “Red Dixie Cup”, the album is given a modern-trap, party appeal. Yet, whether he is slaying a Golden Era instrumental or the most contemporary production, this rapper remains energetic. He is unhinged and unyielding in the booth; and that will translate to being an epic performer whenever he hits the stage. “Viral Injection” is everything the doctor on the intro skit warns us it is. Yet, it is so exhilarating, you’ll be begging for another dose.
