Jay Rhymes shares raw new EP ‘Extreme Charismatic Wiseguy’

Jay Rhymes, a skilled, lyrically-focused emcee out of Philadelphia, has dropped off a new EP called Extreme Charismatic Wiseguy. This raw, darkly hypnotic 4-song set features production from Arkin, Potato God, and Nino Lucania, pays homage to Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), a legendary professional wrestling promotion based in Philadelphia. On Extreme Charismatic Wiseguy, Rhymes delivers a cinematic, engaging set of songs that puts his lyrical skills on full display. He sounds confident and focused atop the raw keys and dark atmospherics of opener “Join The Revolution (ECW)”, produced by Akin- while “A Matter Of Respect” (prod. Nino Lucania) is a tour-de-force of gritty instrumentation and intense rhyming. Closer “November To Remember” provides a highlight, with its frigid production from Lucania, pounding percussion, and cathartic, raw performance from Rhymes on the mic.
