HDBeenDope’s new EP has finally out
Following mounted anticipation, HD has come through on his newest audio gem. Packed with bangers, the EP even features a couple collaborations coming courtesy of Dizzy Banko and Tracy Dashh.
Roc Nation label’s HDBeenDope, debuted the release of his first EP project as a new label signee. The project, produced by Dizzy Banko and boasting of collaborations with fellow east coast rappers like Tracey Dashh captures sounds deeply rooted in the city of New York.
The highly anticipated five-track project features standout single and lead track “Mamba.” The widespread anthem has captured the attention of fans across New York and nationwide through HD’s steady buildup of the song in his studio sessions. The rapper also performed the explosive track during his recent headline show at The Meadows in Brooklyn which amassed a list of local collaborators Tyler Loyal, Niko Brim, Lola Brooke, Dizzy Banko himself and a room-shaking demand for an encore. The “Mamba” track has already made its way into football stadiums and major sports networks like ESPN as a natural champion’s anthem.
"You know that moment when you’re about to quit and there's this voice that told you to stop b****ing and get to it? That voice is necessary. What Can They Say is that voice in musical form. “Mamba” is the anthem of the EP. Just when you thought it was over... nope!” says HDBeenDope. “New York City right now sounds beautiful, and we just need to keep pushing the energy. I’m positive What Can They Say will do exactly that.”
It’s more than just new music. Dope has even blessed fans with the new ‘Wake Em Up’ music video.
Today’s EP release is paired with the official music video release for “Wake Em Up.” The menacing sound of the song’s piano keys and bellowing drums overlaid with HD’s sharp, quick-fire rhymes is reflected in the new visual’s dark motifs captured inside an old industrial warehouse. Inside, masses are spotted sleeping on the floor which serve as a literal interpretation of listeners and doubters sleeping on HD's work as he prepares to make his explosive mark in the hip hop game.
“The EP title speaks for itself – it's a collection of five bangers of straight heat, pain, and passion. The “Mamba” track specifically is the anthem to get the world to stand up, get on your grind and never settle for less.” said Dizzy Banko. “The sound of NYC isn’t as balanced as it used to be, but I believe in this project to enhance the New York sound to another level.”
