Sicilian Gold, with its initial release in October of last year by artist Hollow Profit, this track is an absolute gem for all true hip hop and gangsta rap enthusiasts. This track is an exceptional collaboration between Hollow Profit, also known as Brody Burke, and Ronnie Alpha. Two visionary artists who managed to bring us such a masterpiece, Sicilian Gold.
Influenced by the gritty sounds of 90s hip-hop legends, Hollow Profit started his musical journey in Duluth, Minnesota. He began his musical journey at the age of 14 by writing lyrics, and his mastery of the art of words is quite evident in Sicilian Gold with distinctively crafted lyrical components where he tackles a variety of themes such as resilience and perseverance. It skillfully captures a truthful outlook on life where it is a mix of ambition, struggle, and determination. Such a courageous mix that perfectly reflects the artist’s essence.
The track is a perfect mix of a vintage hip-hop sound combined with modern production sounds and techniques. Produced by 47Quid, the producer managed to create the perfect blend for such layered and deep lyrics and meanings. The beat created is quite melancholic, but the overall production urges you to be put in a more of a nostalgic and reflective state rather than a sorrowful or mournful kind of atmosphere.
This release is absolutely a great tease for Hollow Profit’s upcoming album, “CUIBONO?” Which is supposed to be out for the world sooner than you think. So, if you are someone who is looking for some good old hip-hop and gangsta rap with a little bit of a modern twist and great production, you should absolutely be putting Hollow Profit under your radar for the next few months!
