New York City’s Hip-Hop scene has undergone a transformation of sorts in recent years. With new artists pulling musical inspiration from other regions, many of these newcomers completely abandon their NYC roots for the southern aesthetic. With that said, Bronx native Swave HMG, leader of the Tally Global collective, releases his full length project titled Legendary. The album finds the upstart mixing a unique brand of golden era NY aesthetics with a new school sensibility. The 14-track project, with majority of the production handled by Dizzybanko, features standout songs such as Its Whateva and Wrong Ni**a, which have already been gaining heavy traction on major NYC radio. Having been stamped and co-signed by some of rap’s elite, Swave HMG is sure to be a fixture on your music playlist.
