UFO Fev, the East Harlem emcee, makes a striking entrance onto the underground hip-hop scene with his 2017 EP, "Camouflage." This concise yet powerful collection of seven tracks, produced in collaboration with Talahassee's BackPack Beatz, clocks in at just under 20 minutes, but it's a journey that leaves a lasting impression. The EP opens with the title track, "Camouflage," setting the tone for the introspective and hard-hitting lyrics that follow. UFO Fev's distinctive flow and clever wordplay are on full display throughout, tackling themes of personal growth, overcoming obstacles, and the realities of life in the concrete jungle.
The lead single, "Mister Nice Guy," is a standout track that showcases UFO Fev's ability to blend streetwise narratives with catchy, boom-bap beats. The EP also features the thought-provoking "It Matters, Pts. 1 & 2," where UFO Fev delves into the complexities of modern life, and "New Ernst," a track that highlights his versatility and lyrical prowess. With its raw, unfiltered energy and authentic New York sound, "Camouflage" is a testament to UFO Fev's talent and a promising debut for an artist who has already made waves in the hip-hop community. Whether you're a fan of underground hip-hop or simply appreciate clever lyricism and hard-hitting beats, "Camouflage" is an EP that demands your attention.
