Boston up-and-comer, Merk just released his 16-track mixtape, The 6YS (Sixth Year Senior). The 23-year-old is 1/3 of the music trio PAKXEMH, a group that charted on the Billboard Top 200 and peaked #2 on the iTunes hip-hop chart with their 2014 EP Highly Overdue. Merk’s solo offering is youthful, candid, and packed with charismatic lyricism as he shares his story with listeners.
The 6YS radiates chill vibes and truly provides insight on how Merk feels about a variety of things. “Cause you could be lame and rap about the coolest shit/ And truth be told you really about to fool these kids/ Or you could be cool and rap about the lamest shit/ Or what if I told you I don’t care ’bout what famous is,” Merk raps on “Bone Chilla.”
