Image
B-Boy Phil Wizard | Photography by Little Shao The Olympic Games are often a showcase of the world’s most exciting and diverse sports, with new disciplines frequently being introduced to keep the games fresh and engaging. Recently, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has made headlines for deciding to exclude Breaking from the 2028 Summer Games in Los Angeles.

This is the 4th EP from Arlington, Texas emcee Claas. For about 2 decades, this guy’s been steadily putting in work for the underground whether it be on it his own or as a member of groups like The Underground Avengers as well as VLNC & the Caarnivorz. He teased his previous LP albeit 3 with Lyrikal Snuff Productionz by dropping a trilogy of EPs leading up to it much like Strange Music used to do in 2019/2020 right before the pandemic, culminating in  This is Revenge  being released in full 2 & a half years ago. Over a month after UGA’s 3rd & final album  Oblivion  however, Claas is looking to take listeners  In My Head . The title track has a morbid trap atmosphere to get the 3 song, 11 minute offering started demonically talks about demons following him with no end in sight while “In This Box” drearily acknowledges death at the door encouraging to let him in. “A Part of Me” ends the EP with a guitar & hi-hats talking about searching, but bein...
