Anyone who caught last month’s Family Not a Group showcase at the Chapel doesn’t need to hear it from me: Ozer and EaSWay rising to the top of the SF rap game. They know it too, unapologetic about recreating OutKast’s Stankonia album art and referencing Biggie, Kendrick, Ludacris, and other greats throughout their new five-track EP. Except for “Heatwave,” the sexy banging super danceable single dropped last August, Slaponia sees Ozer and EaSWay dialing into slow, groovy beats. It’s great to see them continuing their easy collaboration, riffing off each other along with features by Luvc4 and Serg2x.
Check out the next Family Not a Group function at El Rio on Saturday, February 18, featuring Carlo Guapi, Jenset, Swaggyy B, DJSAY, Tia Nomore, Baghead, Emelle, Afterthought, and Marika Sage.
