Oakland’s very own Casual, from the iconic Hieroglyphics crew, teams up with producer Albert Jenkins to drop their latest single, "Head Strong." It’s got this quirky, video-game vibe thanks to its 8-bit synths. But don’t be fooled—there’s a heavy drum groove that really drives home the song’s title. Casual, known for his freestyle prowess, showcases his alien-level lyricism, blending street smarts with intricate wordplay. It’s like he’s effortlessly weaving through pop culture references from different eras, all over Jenkins’ dynamic beats.
"Head Strong" comes straight off Casual and Albert Jenkins’ joint project, STARDUSTER. This EP is a love letter to the Bay Area’s DIY indie spirit—a fusion of East Bay and South Bay influences. It’s all about top-tier lyricism layered over meticulously crafted beats.
