Brooklyn standout Melvoni unleashes his anxiously awaited new album, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, via Epic Records.
Over the course of 14 tracks, he levels up in terms of both his razor-sharp rhymes and hypnotically hyper catchy melodies. Among numerous anthems, horns pipe up on “COUNTING SHEEP” [feat. 21 Savage]. His emotionally charged verses snake around a skittering beat, and he confesses, “I see demons when I close my eyes.” As Melvoni carries the hook with charisma and confidence, GRAMMY® Award-winning multiplatinum superstar 21 Savage pulls up with an irresistible and incisive guest spot of his own. Cinematic piano sets the stage for “TAN BANDANA” as he exclaims, “I turned myself into a boss, I feel like Gotti, but I won’t go out like Gotti.” Acoustic guitar underlines the spacey “OZONE,” while the classy old school sample complements his unfiltered storytelling on “THE STORY OF LIL SUV.“ THIS IS NOT A DRILL illuminates every side of this dynamic force of nature and bulldozes a path for much more to come.
