IceRocks delivers a raw and gritty underground hip hop experience with "Live from the Bunker," a compact yet powerful album released on January 15, 2018, under DXA Records, LLC. Clocking in at just over 32 minutes, this boom bap gem is a testament to IceRocks' skill and the authenticity of the underground scene.
Featuring a lineup of notable collaborators like Calamity, Meyhem Lauren, and Sic Wit Da Pen, the album is a journey through the streets of Queens, New York. Tracks like "Represent Queens" and "Timbs in the Summer" set the tone with hard-hitting beats and lyrical prowess, while "The Waltz" and "Forever Dignified" showcase a more introspective side of IceRocks' artistry.
The album's production is a love letter to the boom bap genre, with dusty drums, crisp samples, and a no-nonsense approach that harks back to the golden age of hip hop. IceRocks' flow is versatile, switching from aggressive to smooth as needed, and his lyricism is sharp, painting vivid pictures of street life and personal struggles.
