The collaboration is a smooth blend of their styles, showcasing Dee Wile's knack for picking blunted out beats that find a sweet spot between boom bap and trap. Throughout the EP, this sonic aesthetic creates a laid-back atmosphere perfect for relaxed listening.
Dee Wile's lyrical style is as unpretentious as ever. He continues to explore themes of everyday life, touching on his "smoked-out lifestyle" and aspirations for sports, women, and, of course, copious amounts of THC. He delivers his rhymes with a straightforwardness that's both relatable and refreshing.
Dee Wile has carved out his own lane within the hip-hop landscape. He's built a solid fanbase through his commitment to consistently releasing quality music.
