As one of the hottest artists in contemporary trap, it was only a matter of time before EST Gee emerged as a true leader. As the most present voice on this new project, it's exciting to see him as a curator and example to follow for his peers. Moreover, Young Shiners just released the EST compilation Shiners Are Forever, a concise 12-track offering that showcases a few different members. EST Zoski, Marti, Lu Mike, SkiMike, and DonWon carry some tracks here either by themselves or paired up with another MC. In addition, Lil Baby and Lil Jairmy provide guest appearances, resulting in a consistent albeit one-note instrumental and flow pallet.
Furthermore, that beat similarity can be seen across a few different production elements. As far as the flow, though, it's similar to contemporary trap styles out of the South or even Detroit in some pockets, following a stream-of-consciousness approach with minimal breaks. But back to the instrumentals: hard-hitting kicks and snares, eerie piano leads, and hazy, menacing synth pads are all over Shiners Are Forever. With these tried and true sounds, EST Gee launches his new label with a consistent definition of their approach and sound.
