Troy Ave is actively looking to resurrect New York rap with the release of his new mixtape New York City: The Album. “Dick-riding has never been a form of transportation” he raps on “Cigar Smoke,” criticizing New York artists who he thinks aren’t committed to the city’s legacy. Collaborations with Raekwon, Prodigy, N.O.R.E. and more help to bring New York’s gritty drug rap back while Harry Fraud, Scram Jones, and AraabMuzik bring back that old school, hard-hitting, “what are you looking at muthafucka” sound. Listen to the album below, or purchase it on iTunes and receive a bonus track.
