Papo2oo4 & Subjxct 5: “Robbery”I’ll say it again: Jersey producer Subjxct 5 is on a heater like Giancarlo Stanton. Check the beats on Mr. 3000, his newest joint tape with husky-voiced MC Papo2oo4: They’re referential (he probably could have been in Terror Squad) and futuristic at the same time. And nobody flows over his twitchy East Coast bounce like Papo, who always sounds like he’s on a The Come Up DVD freestyling on a park bench in his winter coat. “Can’t give false reality, prepare for the worst/’04 Red Sox, ballin’ out, fuck a curse,” he raps in his second verse of “Robbery” that had me doing the Funk Flex stank face. Over Subjxct’s anxious instrumental—laser beams, ringing phones, and 808s like Godzilla’s footsteps—Papo sounds like he’s barring out through the apocalypse.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 Papo2oo4 and more on our Spotify playlist.
