Virginia rapper Koncept Jack$on’s verbal control is dizzying. He stretches rhyme schemes to their breaking points across verses, and the sound of his words matters as much as their content. On “New Skeezer,” a single from he and Toronto-based producer Bane Capital’s upcoming Good Product EP, Koncept bobs and weaves through hazy vocals and drums as he and M.E.D. swap stories about quick flings and ducking the cops. Bane’s beat is the perfect canvas for Koncept and M.E.D. to flex just for the hell of it, a space that encourages consistent screen-swiping rewinds. Though Koncept could rap about filing his taxes and make it sound like an adventure, the thrilling stories he tells here find their match in his agile delivery.
With artists releasing songs at a fast and furious pace, it’s difficult for the average hip-hop head to keep track of it all—no matter how tapped in they are. That’s why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.
Check out previous Ones, and listen to new rap from Bane Capital, M.E.D., and Koncept Jack$on and more on our Spotify playlist.
