Donnie Menace, the Even Heathens, Grewsum & Stir Crazy are the Wic Kids (EP Review)

by -

The Wic Kids are a horrorcore supergroup consisting of emcees Donnie Menace, Grewsum, Illtemper & King Gordy as well as producer Stir Crazy. All of whom have crossed paths with one another at some point since everyone’s pretty much established themselves in their own rights whether it be Donnie quickly becoming a Lyrikal Snuff Productionz mainstay, Grewsum being one of the most popular members of the Mission: Infect collective, Gordy & Illtemper forming the duo Even Heathens few years ago or Stir Crazy’s role as part of Majik Ninja Entertainment’s in-house production team. Now that they’ve officially joined forces, the Wic Kids are introducing themselves through an eponymous debut EP.

“Letum Know” starts the EP on some boom bap shit talking about living under the cold streets of your town rolling deep without any limitations whereas “Lightless” takes the symphonic trap route instrumentally discussing evil being everywhere around them. “Toxic” has this acoustic boom bap flare to the beat delving into toxic relationships while “Fried Wires” keeps the kicks & snares in tact explaining they’re wired differently. “DGAF” mixes boom bap with rock talking about giving 0 fucks & “Inhumane” ends the EP aggressively warning to stay clear of them.

Illtemper has been teasing this EP since March & if this is only the beginning for the Wic Kids, then it’s a more than welcoming debut for the supergroup. Stir Crazy’s production is mostly boom bap centered throwing a hint of trap in the mix & all 4 MCs each have their own different takes on the wicked shit like Donnie’s cutthroat wordplay or King of Van Dyke & Harper a.k.a. Blaxl Rose reaffirming his Last American Rock Star status, but hearing them together makes the lyricism much more devastating.

Score: 8/10
