When it comes to Texas and it’s place in Hip-Hop, the lineage goes almost as far back as the genre does. Despite this, sometimes the state takes a backseat to areas like Atlanta, Chicago or even most recently, South Florida, despite it’s major contributions to the scene. One of it’s newest exports is Dallas rapper Coach Tev, who checks in with his fire new project, I Fell In Love With My Mistress.
At only 7-tracks and 28-minutes long, the project is at a perfect run-time for today’s dwindling attention spans. Despite being so short, the project is jam-packed with superb lyricism, enlightening poetry, creative concepts and top-notch production provided almost exclusively from Tev’s cousin and frequent collaborator, Cambino.
Standouts from the project include, “Wizard Kelly,” a bouncy, infectious track that serves as the resident banger, “Me, You & Your Friend,” the wavy, synth driven track that see’s Tev dive into his most iniquitous fantasies and “Sin City” probably the most polished and well-developed track on the project that captures everything he was trying to convey in the projects tittle.
With a string of music videos to follow the stellar project, we could see the Dallas rep blow sooner than later. Either way, just remember where you heard it first. Peep below.
