Launched on the underground scene by Westside Gunn in "Hitler Wears Hermes 6", Flee Lord easily and very quickly dominated this first glimpse of 2020. He releases his second studio album of 2020, while his previous record seems destined to be one of the best of the year, which would make him one of the 2020 rookies.
Also on "Mandatory Respect", he maintains his thug-drug hardcore themes that are doing so well for Buffalo and Rochester (don't sleep on Syracuse!) and, generally, they're making the fortune of rap in Tri-State, despite neither him nor Chase Fetti originate from these cities: Chase Fetti slows the quality of this short project with a generic delivery and little lyrical material compared to the offer brought by Flee Lord.
"Get the Mac" opens, a simple rhythm, a lean and dark minimal jazzy boom bap confidently faced by Flee Lord, who delivers slow, raw, hardcore, while the flow spitted by Chase Fetti is smoothness but less effective. This song is the skeleton for the next ones and there are few variations. "You Ain't Wit Us" features a sci-fi synth looped in the background, which makes the dark jazzy rhythm more interesting, while the following two pieces have a good boom bap jazzy slightly uptempo, but overall there are no extraordinary variations: closes a good simple rhythm, with looped vinyl sound and tight looped female sample in the background to accompany the two rappers.
