Mozzy & Kalan.FrFr: It’s a double up flex with the ‘LUCKY HER’ album

Need some fire tunes outside of the holiday playlists to get your Friday going? Look no further than what’s brewing with hip-hop artists Mozzy and Kalan.FrFr for their new LUCKY HER studio project.

Mozzy and Kalan.FrFr drop a hard-hitting ‘LUCKY HER’ album

It’s more than just their bars meeting up. From vixen India Love glowing as the project’s official cover art, how about securing artists like Skilla Baby and Rob49 on the release? Say less.

Mozzy and Kalan.FrFr are natural collaborators, the Sacramento native's storytelling and grit blending with the L.A. native's melodic flexes to create an unexpected, but satisfying whole. Following in the footsteps of fan favorite songs like "Whole 100" and "No Love," the Cali duo shares LUCKY HER, their first-ever collaborative album. Filled with hard-nosed bars and melodic hooks alike, LUCKY HER combines R&B, rider music, and street rap into a synthesis that could only have come from the West Coast. A departure from Mozzy's usual style, the Oak Park native finds himself perfectly at home in Kalan's high-rolling L.A. lifestyle, presenting songs that are flirtatious and out of pocket, but doesn't sacrifice the realness for which both emcees are known. LUCKY HER is available on all platforms via EMPIRE.

The tape is home to the recent single "BBL" ft. Rob49, a confident anthem that featured a cameo from LUCKY HER cover star India Love in the music vide. Skilla Baby shows up on "SIZE ME UP," which demonstrates the synergy between the L.A. and Detroit sounds. Mozzy's frequent collaborator Shordie Shordie joins the party for "EULOGY," providing his layered melodies over a propulsive minor key riders' anthem. In addition to breezy songs like "RUN EM OVER," there is the heartfelt "WHERE I COME FROM," and the high-octane "NO MUNYON NO FUNYON (Remix)."

Along with the project, Mozzy and Kalan share the video for "EGGS IN THE MORNING," a LUCKY HER highlight. Over an easygoing instrumental that simmers at a low boil, "EGGS IN THE MORNING" is a flirtatious display of devotion, as Kalan serenades a baddie with sweet braggodocio ("You a bad b*tch, you wear thigh highs too/Cartier on your wrist, and your eyes outdo it," he sings), while Mozzy promises to provide for her needs in any way he can ("Let me know you had to pull your patna out the mud/Let me know you need to pull your momma out the slums," implores Mozzy). Shot like a home movie, the video for "EGGS IN THE MORNING" finds Mozzy and Kalan in their element as casanovas, as they each spend a romantic night with one of L.A.'s baddest.

Hailing from Sacramento's Oak Park neighborhood, Mozzy has built a reputation as one of the best street storytellers in today's rap game.  He has earned two GOLD certifications from the RIAA as a lead artist–"Excuse Me" and "Sleep Walkin"–and three more on his collaborations with Skylar Grey, Likybo, and $tupid Young. Mozzy earned mainstream recognition in 2018, when his song "Sleep Walkin" was featured in a pivotal scene in Ryan Coogler's Black Panther, and he earned a shout out from Kendrick Lamar in his Grammy Award acceptance speech. His street classic "Bladadah" placed #68 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best West Coast Rap Songs of All Time. Earlier this year, Mozzy released his heartfelt album, Children Of The Slums, paying tribute to the lost souls of his home neighborhood and telling their stories.

Born and raised in South Central Los Angeles, Kalan.FrFr has brought a unique flavor to his city's rap scene, with his melodic flows and effortless hooks. A touted football recruit before he turned to music full-time, Kalan approaches his music with an athlete's mentality, and has developed an audience in the world of sports, particularly with his hit single "Scoring," featured on many NBA broadcasts. This year, Kalan has leaned into his Cali roots, releasing the 8-song project MAKE THE WEST GREAT AGAIN, featuring guest spots from his friends and fellow Angelenos YG and Ty Dolla $ign, plus G Herbo and Spooky Jay. In June, Kalan.FrFr performed as part of DJ Hed's set in Kendrick Lamar's notorious L.A. rap celebration, "The Pop Out: Ken & Friends," broadcast live on Amazon Prime, performing his local hit "Right Wit It" with G Perico. The summer also saw Kalan grace the BET Awards Pre-Show stage with another energetic set. Most recently, he recruited an L.A. all-star team to remix his project highlight "Everybody," including OhGeesy, BlueBucksClan, and 310babii.
