The Mixtape:
In a rare case where drill rap meets cutting edge electronic (and actually works), Chicago rapper Mikey Dollaz’s Picture Me Rollin includes all original production from an A-list collection of emerging EDM and rap producers including Strict Face, Obey City, Sonny Digital, Dun Deal, Honorable C.N.O.T.E, Anti-Gand Planet Mu’s Silk Road Assassins. Debuted by FACT Mag and delivering everything from a trap ballads (“Girl I Want You,” “Fuck Me Right,” “New to Me“) to trunk-rattling electronic-tinged bangers (“4 Pills,” “Commas“) to party anthems (“Flat or Molly,” “NOW”), Mikey Dollaz proves to be something of a rap chameleon, adapting to a variety of styles and tempos while maintaining a Danny Brown-esque level of energy.
Earlier this week Mikey Dollaz shared the “Good As It Gets” video single via HipHopDX, snarling on a haunting Sonny Digital production while he rages with his crew in Chicago. The video followed “Hot Boy,” which debuted via Pigeons & Planes, who shared praises noting that “Mikey’s voice remains front and center as the commanding force, even through that crazy change-up halfway through.” One of the few features on Picture Me Rollin comes from frequent collaborator King Louie, with whom he teamed up with on the Salva-produced loose cut “Forever Be Dat Guy,” which sampled Art of Noise‘s popular single “Moments in Love.” Mikey Dollaz’s Picture Me Rollin is available now.

Mikey Dollaz Background:

Mikey Dollaz hit the ground running, parlaying his work ethic and obvious potential into local buzz. After a session with the up and coming Lil Chris went particularly well, the two joined up with I.L. Will to form the group M.I.C. In late 2012, he shot a video for his single “All We Know Is Drill” with influential Chicago director DGainz. As Gainz’s videos were crucial in the rise of the likes of Chief Keef and King Louie in the city’s YouTube-centric scene, the clip took Dollaz to another level. King Louie would eventually co-sign him as well, contributing verses to a handful of future tracks.

Through DGainz, Mikey also eventually found himself in a rap-centric love triangle with Tink and Dreezy. The details are neither here nor there, but he shines on multiple tracks with both women, and an entire tape with Dreezy: 2013’s excellent Business and Pleasure.

In 2016, Mikey Dollaz finds himself established and ready to make a statement as an artist. Done workshopping his flows and test-driving various styles, he’s ready to break out of the midwest and reach for national acclaim with a proper album. Only a couple of years into his career, it’s clear Mikey is yet to reach the limit of his potential.
