After collaborating on "With The Plug" just under a month ago, Maxo Kream and 03 Greedo have reunited for "ATW," a track from Maxo's debut album Punken, released Friday. Vocally, you can't get a bigger contrast than Maxo and Greedo. Greedo handles the hook, throwing his voice in the clouds with a dreamy melody that recalls his best R&B-adjacent work. In just a few seconds he's disappeared into the aether as Maxo's bassy, confident flows enter, balancing front and center over the synth strings. Greedo's emotional chorus returns just once more to bookend the track.
Maxo's new 14-track album features further guest appearances from Trippie Redd and D. Flowers, as well as production from The Wlderness, Beatboy, Sonny Digital, Ethereal, Honorable C Note, $uicideboy$, Tommy Kruise, Wolfe De Mchls, Teddy Walton, and MexikoDro. You can listen to the full project here.
Greedo released his First Night Out mixtape back in October. If you're looking for an introduction to the Watts, California rapper, it's not a bad place to start.
Quotable Lyrics:
The same blood n***a
That you called your lil' bro
The same lil' n***a
Droppin' names like a hoe
Took him to interrogation
He was posin', fake stiff
Let them crackers fast talk him
Now he shakin' like a bitch
Laws threw some time at him
Started singin', Taylor Swift
Told on you
For a Coca-Cola and some cigarettes
