RealYungPhil has just shared his new mixtape Dr. Philvinci with an accompanying music video for “Everything We Need”. The 15-track project was entirely co-produced by Phil’s frequent collaborators, SURF GANG founder EvilGiane and Soundcloud maestro Dylvinci––giving Phil a sea of tuneful melodies, chopped-up samples, and soulful instrumentation to couple with his signature style. The makeup of Phil’s sound is a combination of a controlled and nonchalant flow, mixed with high-brow braggadocios lyrics, resulting in a flair entirely its own. Standout tracks like “Ain’t Real” show the full pallet of Phil’s abilities, finding him in unique rhyming pockets and cadences and expanding his already developed repertoire. On “Everything We Need”, an ingenious flip of the Kanye West track by the same name, Phil delivers a song that’s undeniably catchy and wholeheartedly impressive––a vibe he carries throughout the entirety of the project. The visuals for the track were filmed in Paris and were shot by a fan Phil encountered during his last trip to France, a testament to the global appeal of his music. “Stay High”, another highlight on the tape, shows EvilGiane & Phil completely transforming Tove Lo’s 2014 hit into an indistinguishable modern-day rap record. The tape also features verses from Phil’s close-knit associates, including SURF GANG members POLO PERKS, Moh Baretta & Pasto Flocco, BoofPaxkMooky, 1600J, and more. This project directly benefits from having 2 of hip-hop’s best underground maestros, EvilGiane & Dylvinci, behind the boards––with both of them providing a wide array of experimental production tailor-fit for Phil’s artistry. The development Phil displays on Dr. Philvinci is well beyond his years and is his most polished work to date––a sure-fire indication that he’s a superstar in the making.
RealYungPhil spent 2021 dropping a myriad of well-curated tapes leading up to the release of Dr. Philvinci. Last year, he dropped 6 projects: RealYung16, a collaborative tape with 1600J, Angels Vs. Demons, Kill Phil Vol.1, Philvinci, a project entirely produced by Dylvinci & Dr. Phil a tape EvilGiane handled all the production on. By sticking to a set of frequent collaborators, Phil was able to carve out his own unique lane in the rising “plugg” sound that has caught fire in hip-hop’s underground. His song “Aint Bout Nun” off of Angels vs. Demons became an overnight viral sensation, cementing his status a serious contender in hip-hop. After working diligently on his craft and expanding his musical range, RealYungPhil has emerged as leading innovator & artist in this generation of stars.
