South Side Kings

Hip hop with a hard-snapping boom-bap foundation and modern trap hats, mid-tempo bounce; verses ride a tight kick-snare pocket with gritty bass stabs, pre-hook strips to claps and crowd chants, chorus punches with gang vocals on the key phrases and a lifted chant melody. Vocal is close-mic, confident, with doubled hook lines, ad-lib shouts, and short delay throws. Ear candy: stadium crowd swells, whistle pops before the hook, reversed cymbal into each chorus. Mix is loud, punchy, and rugged, built for chants and local pride., hip hop, rap
