Slugged On Ah Come Up.

Inspired by the film “The Players Club”, The Queen of “Slugged Music” Dj Don Rock, creates a blueprint for the 727 specific “Slugged Music” sound.

The J Dilla style alarms and Bernie Mack sample set the stage on the intro, providing the trademark slowed down “Slugged Out” style of not only the production but also the MCs. This mixtape was made to just crawl down Central Ave at 1 A.M. hot boxing a blunt of St.Pete’s finest.

What separates Don Rock’s “Slugged Music” from others sub genres like “chopped and screwed” its the wavier lush esthetic of each track. The production feels more like a slow swim in a cup of lean, rather than totally sinking to the bottom with “chopped and screwed”.

Tracks like “Fantasy Freestyle” and “O.W.N” deal with the trials and tribulations of late night romances.

With everything being slowed down that’s not to say Don Rock it’s bringing the heat when it comes to her bars. “Trifecta ft. Jerry Nova” captures that versatility, having us second guessing our circles after 2020.

Like all of us on “The Players Ball”, Don Rock shows the emotions of a late night in the city we know and love St.Petersburg.
