JEEMBO Essentials

Alternative rap provocateur JEEMBO shines a light on hip-hop’s dimly lit corners. In 2016, the MC sparked the PAINKILLER EP trilogy alongside maverick TVETH—a thrilling horrorcore series bursting at the seams with jarring beats and chilling rhymes. JEEMBO continued to carve a distinct path in the game with subsequent solo releases. His 2020 debut Black Box is ripe with deliciously bass-heavy sounds and cinematic lyrical imagery, and bolstered by contributions from Russian talent like OBLADAET as well as Florida rapper PlayThatBoiZay.
