Harlem's own Smoke DZA, a rapper with roots in the golden age of hip-hop and a keen eye on the contemporary scene, presents his latest project, "You're All Welcome." This EP, released on May 24, 2024, under RFC Music Group, is a concise yet powerful collection of seven tracks, clocking in at just under 25 minutes. Collaborating with DJ Relly Rell, Smoke DZA delivers a project that's as engaging as it is brief.
The EP kicks off with "Summer Nights," setting a laid-back yet vibrant tone, and continues with tracks like "Life Goals" and "One Time," showcasing Smoke DZA's signature flow and lyrical prowess. The project also features notable collaborations, including Westside Gunn and Stove God Cooks on "Another Full Tank In The Bronco," DRAM and Steven Young on "Rich Showers," and Really Jaewon on "Who These Niggas." Each track brings a unique flavor, making the EP a diverse listen.
If you're a fan of Smoke DZA's earlier work, such as his raw, kush-loving mixtapes, you'll find familiar elements here, but with a fresh perspective. The EP is available on major streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud, making it easily accessible for both new and longtime fans. For those who crave more, a deluxe version of the EP, featuring four additional tracks, was released on June 28, 2024, extending the listening experience to 36 minutes.
