Classic Der Dicke x MZ Boom Bap – E.G.A.L.

I said it before and I’ll say it again: when it comes to maintaining the purest form of hip-hop, mostly it’s the European artists that are on the front lines of defending the game. One of them definitely is Classic Der Dicke, a Swiss MC and producer, and Mz Boom Bap, a Portuguese beat maker that’s been reppin’ Edinburgh for a while now. After collaborating on a few occasions recently, the duo teamed up again for a banging new single that announces their first studio album “No Gimmicks”.

Now, if you didn’t bump to MZ‘s music before, you should know that his beats weigh a ton due to a thick layer of dust. With no intentions of bowing to commercial standards of production, his style gives birth to heavy, grimy, and unfiltered bangers with snares that break necks. Same goes for Der Dicke, as his approach to spittin’ lyrics shows neither remorse nor compromise, easily flowing over turbulent instrumentals like this one.

The new track “E.G.A.L.” shows their impeccable synergy and compatibility when working together, just like their previous work that won me over at the first hearing. With that being said, I got a satisfied smirk on my face when I saw they’re working on a collab project, and such a single promises that pure-to-the-core boom bap ish. As the upcoming album’s name suggests – no gimmicks here, only the real deal.

The album will be released this fall, so stay with us for more updates.
