40 Cal- Mooga is out this week
40 Cal, of Harlem hip-hop juggernauts The Diplomats is on his hustle in a way that most rappers only mouth about. Each successive year has seen a greater level of recognition for the emcee, who came up through NYC's hyper-competitive battle and mixtape circuit before hook up with one of the most influential crews in rap music. But while freestyles and the mixtape grind have kept 40's skills extra sharp, the record album format is where he truly towers over the competition.
Mooga (put one over for 'money'), his debut for Gold Dust, is an record album built for repeated listens, in the tradition of worn out walkman rotation tapes. Over the arena sized beats The Diplomats are known for, 40 as well as Dipset affiliates Duke Da God and JR Writer show that it's possible to construct complete songs without sacrificing the clever couplets and over the top swagger that make knock music so much fun. From short-winded out landrover beats to club bangers to reflective meditations on responsibility, Mooga is the work of an creative person on the come-up. Expect big things from ane of rap music's new stars.
