vzathegreat a.k.a. Vernon is a 24 year old artist from Groton, CT. He claims to bring a wild versatility as well as, experimentation; inside of his music. We hear that inside of his newest tape, “CONNECTICUT DON’T LOVE YOU”; which is all about how Vernon never gets the love from his local music scene. This tape is literally Vernon leaving behind that “hometown” image that rappers so proudly represent. This is something that a lot of newer artists can relate to in the new digital age. No one wants to like your music or art until someone tells them it’s cool or until it starts selling. Very few of us ever get the support we seek and it starts to really make you look at your art differently. It could make you feel ba for not goo at your craft but, Vernon channeled this energy and rage into a fun and psychedelic influenced rap album. “CONNECTICUT DON’T LOVE YOU” is an 8-track album with many different sounds mixing together. This tape goes from a 90s hip hop vibe inside of “Sneakerbump” to the heavy experimental psychedelic rap sound we get from tracks like, “#4thekIds” and “Where’s the Lie?” vzathegreat has a very crisp sound that is turning into a great product. From out of the box sounds that are hard to come by to the quick and seamless bars. This tape is more than worth your time, check it out now.
a place for the underground.
