Much can be said about the unique character of South Florida’s bodacious new wave of hip hop and fresh visual style. One artist takes the cake for not only fitting but also molding the new archetype of the eccentric rapper-producer, with a persona that blends both the mainstream and wholly remarkable. Yucky Poor’s music exudes charismatic confidence with hearty spoonfuls of wit, humor and introspection, all accompanied with a sundry production catalog that draws influence from every corner of music. His first album, The Scenic Route, has Yucky revealing a darker side to his personality, though without abandoning the sense of humor that has woo’d listeners from the beginning. The production on The Scenic Route shows serious development in Yucky’s style, more suave and brooding yet accessible and seamless of a listening experience than ever before. Included in this premier release are features from even more of South Florida’s best up and coming artists, including a sophomore appearance from Yoshi, Wilmer Paris, and Mykey Lo. Here’s the Yucky Poor produced cut “Stills” featuring Mykey Lo.
