Our Take

GUILTY SIMPSON & GENSU DEAN set out to prove that simplicity can be guilty of greatness on their latest collaboration, "Ego." The Detroit-based rapper and producer duo deliver a raw and unapologetic homage to classic hip-hop with a modern twist.

From the moment the first track hits your ears, you can't help but nod your head to the infectious beats provided by GENSU DEAN. His production is like a sonic time machine, transporting listeners back to the golden era of boom-bap while still feeling fresh and innovative.

And then there's GUILTY SIMPSON, whose gritty delivery and razor-sharp lyricism cut through each track like a hot knife through butter. His no-nonsense approach to storytelling paints vivid pictures of street life, inner-city struggles, and personal triumphs.

Together, GUILTY SIMPSON & GENSU DEAN create a musical synergy that is undeniable. Tracks like "Back At It" and "Soundcheck" showcase their chemistry and highlight their ability to create head-nodding bangers that demand repeat listens.

"Ego" is not just an album, it's a statement. It's a reminder that sometimes the most effective music is the simplest. GUILTY SIMPSON & GENSU DEAN have created a masterpiece that is unapologetically raw, undeniably authentic, and irresistibly catchy. Don't sleep on this one, it's a guilty pleasure you won't regret indulging in.

About the artist

Guilty Simpson & Gensu Dean

GUILTY SIMPSON & GENSU DEAN showcase the perfect marriage of gritty rhymes and boom-bap beats in their collaborative efforts. Guilty Simpson, hailing from Detroit, is known for his raw lyricism and no-nonsense delivery, while producer Gensu Dean brings a vintage sound with a modern twist. Simpson burst onto the scene in the mid-2000s, making a name for himself with his work alongside super-producer J Dilla. Since then, he has continued to solidify his status as one of the most respected emcees in the game, with a discography that boasts collaborations with the likes of Madlib and Apollo Brown. Gensu Dean, on the other hand, has been quietly establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of production. His beats are soulful and sample-heavy, drawing inspiration from the golden era of hip-hop while still sounding fresh and innovative. Together, Guilty Simpson & Gensu Dean form a formidable duo that is not to be missed. Their latest project, "Dice Game," is a masterclass in old-school hip-hop aesthetics, with Simpson's gritty tales of street life perfectly complemented by Dean's expertly crafted beats. So, if you're in the mood for some authentic, no-frills hip-hop that will transport you back to the essence of the genre, look no further than Guilty Simpson & Gensu Dean. These two artists may be guilty of making some of the best music in the game right now, but we'll let them off the hook this time.
