The Carquinez Bridge doesn’t get enough love. Actually a pair of bridges, it connects the East Bay with Vallejo—two regional powerhouses for hip hop. Thankfully, the artwork for Boysareout sets the record straight. Released by Text Me Records, the new EP by Jammy (with features by P-Lo, Nate Curry, and BxRod) booms and blasts its way down the highway, all cold asphalt and door-rattling bass. Yes, it’s hyphy-inspired, but there’s also a nice surprise in the closing track “Nuke,” whipping up Jammy’s bars into a crisp and clubby UK garage banger.
