Narc. Magazine Online

Reliably informed

Across seven tracks, in a brief 22 minutes, Zamj is our guide through a fast-moving banquet of beats and bars that explores a myriad of genres and provides a fantastic showcase for his versatility behind the mic.

From the junglist frenzy of DnB Bars to the more introspective, spaced out Massive Attack-esque atmosphere of Psilocybin and the 808-heavy grind of No Rehearsal and Fast, the EP is consistent but ambitious in its scope, with Zamj not seeking to stick to one firm musical blueprint but instead use a wide array of beats and genres as a foundation for his fantastic flow and brilliant, frank, raw and charismatic wordplay, showcased by the statement-of-intend closing track That Kid. Properly essential.
