A Boogie wit da Hoodie

A Boogie wit da Hoodie, born Julius Dubose in the Bronx, is one of the more interesting melodic voices to come out of New York rap in the late 2010s. His 2017 debut The Bigger Artist, driven by the top-twenty single Drowning with Kodak Black, hit number four on the Billboard 200 and earned real critical respect. What strikes me is how he blends singing and rapping without it feeling like a gimmick; the melody is woven into his identity. Coming from the Bronx, the birthplace of hip-hop, there is a fitting symmetry to his rise. I see him as a modern bridge between street rap and pop sensibility.
