New York-based hip-hop collective I’ll Never Die (IND) solidifies its status as a breath of fresh air in an era of solo acts with their expansive new album, GENESIS, a 17-track LP released in partnership with Big.Ass.Kids’ Music Man that marks both a culmination and a bold new beginning. Featuring a prolific roster of distinct artists like JUNE!, Jay Cinema, and dj noonsomewhere, the album masterfully weaves their eclectic sounds from haunting piano loops on “fantastic!” to the aspirational storytelling of “flight!” into a seamlessly cohesive journey that feels like a perfectly curated feature film. More than just a compilation, GENESIS showcases the power of their five-year forged chemistry, offering everything from intimate poetic reflections to a proper, energized cypher on “WE HERE,” all while maintaining a unpredictable, top-tier artistry that signals this collective, true to its name, has an infinite future ahead.
