Crimeapple has already added another salty new chapter to his discography with his 17th studio album. We're talking about the lyrical wizard from New Jersey who has been gripping the underground since 2017. With his fourth EP "Sweet Dreams" and the debut album "Aguardiente," produced entirely by Big Ghost Ltd. Since then, his reputation in the underground scene has shot up like a rocket. Any hip-hop head who has been following him for a while knows his hits: from 'Wet Dirt' with DJ Skizz to 'Medallo' and 'Cartagena' with DJ Muggs. And of course "Breakfast in Hradec" & "Sin Cortar. But man, his most recent work, like 'El León' and 'Bazuko,' are like a salty snack you just can't get enough of.
And now there is "Rose Gold. This latest creation immediately shows its teeth with "Taste Like Butter. With a sample of 'O-o-h Child' by The Stairsteps, Crimeapple steps right into the spotlight of today's underground. He reminds us that he has lifted himself off the ground to an iconic spot in the scene. Then there's "Oro Rosa," where he takes a moment without drums to reflect on his journey and the luxuries now within reach. 'Paradigms' takes a different tack with a banging boom bap instrumental - pure salty vibes that cut through mainstream dullness like a knife.
When Estee Nack and Eto join forces with Crime on ''World Famous,'' you feel that international energy all the way down to your toes. They put themselves on the map as "ghetto celebrities," especially on ''97 Tape Master.'' ''Easy Enough'' is Crime defending his title as MC without question, while ''Congratulations'' shows us how he loses the throttle for a moment to take advantage of new opportunities.
The latter part of 'Rose Gold' is where Crimeapple really blossoms. 'Paulie' shows that ruthless self-assurance, while 'Pastor's Whip' shows a glimpse of his spiritual side - the gospel vibe is woven in perfectly. In 'Trifecta,' he exposes all those jealous faces around him, and 'Crystal City' feels like a trip down memory lane with its synth-stomping beats. It reminds you how far he's come since he once took the bus.
If you're an OG Crimeapple follower, you're going to enjoy this trip he laid down with "Rose Gold. It shows that he is still right on the throne in the underground - as the undisputed king of the salted hip-hop universe.
With a rating of 9/10, you are dealing with a project that simply does not disappoint. Crimeapple has once again provided a release that its fans will continue to cherish.
