Following the recent release of their documentary and accompanying visuals for stand-out single “Hoes & Trust”, the British rap trio 3Smoke have released their highly anticipated debut mixtape that delves into the groups reputable gritty sound.

Spread across 10 energy-driven tracks that continue to echo the nostalgia of grime in with hard-hitting drill beats, Paper Pabs, Bossman Birdie, and Milli Major unleash charged-up flows, gritty bars, and an unapologetic pen game from start to finish. Each brining their own sauce into the mix, this mixtape is seamlessly knitted together by the differing delivery styles and tones of the trio as they take listeners on a journey into some of their darkest realities. From the percussive introduction “3Style” to the eerie sounds of “Big Rich City”, the boys encapsulate London’s granular energy in tracks like “Rich In” and “Ying”.
