Wave MMLZ, shot by @yeahitsronald

While Las Vegas in general has been catching a buzz in relation to its growing Hip-Hop scene, North Las Vegas in particular has been churning out heaters. With guys like Big Homie Stone & Impact RH making noise on one side, resident prodigal producer/rapper Wave MMLZ decides to come out of his cave and drop a nuclear bomb of a single in, “Walk The Line.”

Self produces by Wave & featuring fellow Norftown legend T. Rabb, “Walk The Line” is one of the better singles I’ve heard from Wave in 2018. Carrying a, “fuck it” type energy that makes his cadences sound a lot more confident and aggressive, Wave further establishes a sound that was starting to become a bit more prominent on each passing single. Though the stoner-rapper is one for peace and tranquility — MMLZ stands for, “Make Music Live Zen” — he makes it pretty obvious on this one that rapping with the best of them is not an issue, but a sport.

Oh yeah, did we also mention T. Rabb is on the record? I think we did, but just had to do it again. The show-stopping verse from the Vegas legend is a positive sign of things to come after a relatively quiet year.

Check out, “Walk The Line” below and get familiar with North Las Vegas.

When it comes to artists that have truly made a dent in the Hip-Hop industry, who also happen to hail from Las Vegas, the list probably stops at Dizzy Wright, and even that’s debatable. Still, despite the lack of mainstream coverage in a town where entertainment is king, culture has been brewing in the City of Sin for quite some time now. One of the artists who is known in the city as having been a big spearhead to that culture is Northtown Norftown native T.Rabb, who’s been starting waves in the 702 since the Dizzy D. Flashy days. Fresh off of releasing his mixtape, Free Throws — which was a local favorite and criminally underrated nationally — Rabb is back with the new single, “Headlock” and this time he’s got a familiar friend with him.

Recreating the magic the duo had on, “Garlic Oil,” Raab recruited fellow Norftown native — and noted Prodigy stan — G. Reed to the party and he did not disappoint. The two trade vicious barbs over the hyphy, almost Bay-Area-like production for almost 4-and-a-half minutes, putting the city — and presumably the rest of the country — on notice. With all of this great music hailing from Sin City in the last 12-months, don’t be surprised to see one of the bunch break through the barriers pretty soon.

Check out the wavy new track, “Headlock” below and be sure to keep an eye on the Vegas scene before the bandwagon reaches capacity.
