The Silver City all-star Covaboy drops his brand new mixtape Covastory. The Maryland rapper’s muttered account of his life is filled with illustrative punchlines and clever quotables (“My teacher told me get a life-they gave my uncle one in court”) about the struggle to become established. The polished project feels more like an album than a compilation with echoing, heavy production from the always-creative Rick Flare and few features (Felipe Dro, Tokyo Daimo, etc.) We already stamped Covaboy but this is another notch on his belt, don’t sleep on this artist.
