Lately I’ve been lost down the wormhole of Philly producer Trini Viv, whose interstellar funk beats sound a little like the electro plugg of North Carolina beatmaker Dylvinci meets the dreamscapes Ethereal used to hook Carti up with eons ago. They possess you with their smooth yet madcap grooves, like on Lisha G’s “Whatcha Got” or Sprout’s “YouSuck”—both completely hypnotic. The same could be said for Cristal Cozart’s “Burntup;).” Trini’s slowly unfurling digital keys and synths feel like getting caught in a mirage, though they’re also oddly relaxing. Cristal’s extremely chill shit talk is a perfect match: “Nigga think I need him, nigga please, I don’t even need my pops,” she raps, so unbothered. We need a joint tape stat.

With artists releasing songs at a fast and furious pace, it’s difficult for the average hip-hop head to keep track of it all—no matter how tapped in they are. That’s why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.
