The Young OG Project

Editors’ Notes Fabolous is one of the few New York rappers who sounds comfortable in the new hip-hop soundscapes emerging from the South. “We Good,” a feature with Atlanta’s Rich Homie Quan, sets the tone for The Young OG Project. Fabolous provides a jolt of sharpness to the narcotic atmosphere personified by Quan’s unstable crooning. “She Wildin’” and “Ball Drop” are smooth rap tunes optimized for the floor of the club, but Fab’s unique abilities come to life on “Bish Bounce,” which sounds like a hybrid of a skittering Gucci Mane beat and a vintage Wu-Tang track.
