Connie Roses is an artist profoundly influenced by Taoist spiritualism and the mesmerizing, abstract rap styles of notable figures such as Billy Woods, Rap Ferreira, and Open Mike Eagle. His latest release, Fade Away, is an explosive masterpiece. The track seamlessly combines hard-hitting, witty verses in the first half with a rapidly shifting, sample-rich beat. Fade Away delves into themes of returning home, the budding rap scene in Pittsburgh, and a playful exchange of punchlines that infuse a sense of lightness into the track. It’s a blend of personal experiences, reflections on loss, and anxious thoughts interwoven with adventurous instrumentals and rapid rapping. The result is nothing short of glorious.
