Young talented rappers are a dime a dozen in NYC. But add in the social awareness of Dead Prez and wordplay that would make MF Doom chuckle and you have new name in the game worth following: YC The Cynic. His latest album “GNK” was released in August, and the album is beyond hot. Fans of Kid Cudi don’t want miss this, which is similar in sound (at times) but miles away in terms of lyrical content. Frank Drake’s production on the album is just as impressive as YC’s emcee-ing, with groovy beats filled with old soul samples. Fuel your body and mind with fresh NYC Hip-hop!
