48 hours later & the 4th collaborative EP between Atlanta, Georgia emcee Jay NiCE & the local Dump Gawd himself Tha God Fahim has arrived. Both of whom have worked with each other countless times in the past several years, teaming up for the collab album Strictly 4 My D.U.M.P.E.R.Z. during the spring of 2018 & the Bloodspiller EP almost 3 years ago. Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 12 produced by Nicholas Craven became their greatest joint offering yet & fresh off the 17th chapter this weekend, installment #18 is here.
“Better Days” opens with Fahim holding the mic down by himself over a calming boom bap instrumental getting on some mental health shit whereas the soulfully jazzy “Everyday” talks about doing this shit no matter what. Jay NiCE finally appears during “Lay Punishment” setting wack rappers on fire on top of a sample just before “Lands Trapped” lets their words echo through nature.
The song “Well Done” continues the 2nd half of Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 18talking about being eager to make an other bag drop while Tha God Fahim’s final solo joint “Soo True” discusses protecting your heart. “Gumbo” finishes the EP with both MCs teaming up 1 last time for a soulful outro including a reference to WWE Hall of Famer & the shortest reigning WWE Champion André the Giant.
Reserving my praise towards Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 12, the predecessor on Sunday wasn’t on par with the season 2 premiere or the 16th entry in saga & I can pretty much confirm that Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 17 fits in the same category. Jay NiCE’s contributions decreased from 71% to 57% but other than that, there isn’t really a whole lot to be said that hasn’t been sent already from their chemistry to the production.
Score: 7/10
