“8 Shots” Takes It Back to the Grittiness of the Previous Entries in 38 Spesh’s Historic Series (Album Review)

Image
Brand new LP & the 6th overall from Rochester, New York producer/emcee 38 Spesh. Known for being the leader of the Trust Army & founder of TCF Music Group, he’s been steadily busy throughout the last few years whether it be him producing projects for the likes of Planet Asia & Elcamino or his own solo output. Last time we heard Spesh by himself was the intimate  Mother & Gun  nearly a couple summers ago, firing off 8 Shots to end the month of May. “Free Game” hops over a drumless, crooning loop to spend the opening 105 seconds talking about rappers taking his life story & making competition out of it whereas “The Main Line” aggressively discusses the reaper being at one’s door with Jesus trying to call. “Used 2” featuring Rome Streetz finds the pair talking about how having 1 gun simply isn’t enough prior to the self-produced “Be the Best” soulfully speaking against being a small-time individual.

Dropping his debut EP  5am on Crosby  in 2019, he would later follow it up by putting out the Trissland trilogy & drop 3 more EPs in 2024:  Night at the Roxy ,  A Millbrook Story  &  S.A.L.Y. (Still Ain’t Lie Yet) . Coming off both  The American Dream: Son of a Dealer  &  Oceans: Mondrian  however, he’s copping  Prada Cups in the South of France . “Jordan on the Baseline” begins with a soulfully jazzy opener clocking at 109 seconds likening himself to my favorite basketball player of all-time whereas “$2K on the Knicks” chops up a gospel sample to talk about betting for his home team in the NBA Playoffs & not trippin’ live it because of his bias instinct. “Unplugged from Marsielle” kicks off the 2nd half of the EP admitting his brother took his own life over a drumless loop while “...
