Keep that lil Smug

About The Release

Liberian American rapper/ producer Dope KNife is poised to deliver his forthcoming album, Keep That lil Smug. A self-made creative force, Dope KNife has written, recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered every track on the project, demonstrating his multifaceted artistry. The album feels like the culmination of years of growth, experimentation, and mastery, as his production and lyricism converge on a level so high that the music seems like an unfiltered extension of his thoughts. From intricate boom bap beats to razor-sharp wordplay, KNife builds on the classic foundations of hip-hop while injecting his unique perspective, creating something both timeless and refreshingly original. Listeners familiar his iheart podcast, Waiting on Reparations, will recognize echoes of his sharp wit and insightful commentary. Much like the podcast, which delves into the intersections of hip-hop, politics, and culture, the album challenges listeners to think critically while being immersive.
