On their album “Before The Storm,” YS & Hunnidp take listeners into a realm of unfiltered emotion and genuine storytelling with the song “Heartache.” With their engaging lyricism and hip-hop, this dynamic pair captures the spirit of Compton.
YS, real name Justin Lawson, grew up in the same neighborhoods that produced rap greats like Kendrick Lamar, YG, and Roddy Ricch. At age 13, YS began his career as a musician, drawing inspiration from life on the streets. His music is well-known for its vivid imagery and references to street life.
Debuting at age 20, YS’s “Street Dreams” displays his ability to craft catchy rhymes in the vein of his idol, Lil Wayne. In “Heartache,” a single from the album “Before The Storm,” the artist gives listeners an unvarnished look into his or her life by focusing on the more painful aspects of existence.
As an artist, YS is dedicated to revealing the more sensitive and introspective sides of his gangsta image as he develops. Both “Heartache” and “Before The Storm” are excellent examples of YS & Hunnidp’s commitment to genuine narrative in the rap hip hop genre.
