"Birds & Bullets”: A Classic Hip-Hop Revival by Hollow Profit and Ben Beal
"Birds & Bullets," the most recent joint effort from Hollow Profit and Ben Beal, offers a new outlook on the underground hip-hop scene. This fresh release merges the artists' styles, creating a strong mix of intricate lyrics and sentimental melodies. Hollow Profit, based in Duluth, and Ben Beal, from New York, take evident cues from iconic musicians such as MF DOOM and Wu-Tang Clan, incorporating those timeless inspirations into their contemporary songs.
Produced by 47 Quid, "Birds & Bullets" features a laid-back, dreamy jazz sample that sets the song's tone. Mixing boom-bap rhythms with subtle jazz elements evokes a throwback feel similar to 90s rap music. The track pays tribute to traditional hip-hop's timeless, poetic form by blending complex rhyme patterns and impactful phrases, while also bringing in a new and creative aspect.
Hollow Profit and Ben Beal work together by leveraging their strengths: Beal brings up his 2020 track "Birds Aren’t Real" while Hollow Profit incorporates his alter ego, Crimson Dot. The outcome is a song that not just displays their personal skills, but also emphasizes their mutual love for genuine, lyrically focused rap.
"Birds & Bullets" is a track that will connect with fans of the genre who value smart wordplay, introspective lyrics, and traditional boom-bap rhythms.
This partnership represents continued advancement for the artists, as they aim to solidify their distinct identity in the hip-hop scene. For those seeking a blend of classic hip-hop feel with a contemporary twist, "Birds & Bullets" is the ideal option.
