03 Greedo and Kenny Beats Netflix & Deal album is a trap cult classic culmination of lyrical finesse and willful production prowess.
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the last few years, chances are you’ve heard the renowned “Whoa, Kenny!” producer tag featured on some of your favorite artists records.
The Greenwich, Connecticut native (Kenny Beats) linked up with multi-faceted Angeleno/Trap House enthusiast 03 Greedo to formulate a 13-track full-length studio project encompassed with drug induced innuendos and picturesque jargon that personify’s a hustler’s ambition.
Outside of Kenny and Greedo’s melodic dominance throughout the context of this ode to running up a check, Netflix & Deal also snags a few noteworthy guest-features from the likes of Freddie Gibbs, Vince Staples, Maxo Kream, KEY!, OhGeesy and Buddy.
The album opens up with Traffic – a 808-infused recollection of Greedo’s favorite pastime, hustling. This track is riddled with illustrative depictions of what a typical day entails for Greedo as he adamantly pursues the American Dream of financial liberation and potentially bussin’ a jugg or two in his spare time if the opportunity presents itself.
Paid In Full is a writ of homage to the famed Charles Stone III directed film about Harlem’s drug underworld in the 80’s. Greedo effortlessly dabbles between the film’s main protagonists and existential characters, channeling the flair required to emulate similar antics throughout his modern day life.
Disco S**t features Freddie Gibbs and carries a forthright aptitude for narcotic banter. Greedo and Gibbs go bar for bar as they provide a transparent perspective on what benefits potentially may arise from an alternative lifestyle – enabling listeners to live vicariously through a clay-figured animated piece encompassed with enthralling visual aids.
