Critical Praise for Hoodrich Pablo Juan:

“Nine out of ten rap fans seem to agree: Hoodrich Pablo Juan is up next.” – Complex

“Pablo’s been quietly, steadily improving for months. And last week, he released his Designer Drugz 3 mixtape, one of the most consistently enjoyable rap full-lengths I’ve heard in recent memory.” – Stereogum

The Mixtape:

Well-known for his nimble, soft-spoken flow and his hard-as-nails lyrics, HoodRich Pablo Juan is the next heir to Atlanta’s trap throne. Recruiting a murderer’s row of guests for his latest project, HoodRich Pablo Juan shares Designer Drugz 3. Released via 1017 Records, Designer Drugz 3 is Pablo Juan’s coming out party, as he holds his own with some of the most accomplished members of ATL’s A-List. The new project features previously released highlights such as the bouncy player’s anthem “We Don’t Luv Em” (449K views on YouTube), noted as a future hit in Complex’s Bout to Blow column, the Metro Boomin-produced “I Do This” (144k plays on SoundCloud), the off-kilter, Migos-assisted “Do What I Wanna Do,” and the MadeinTYO-featuring banger “B.M.F.“ Featuring appearances from Gucci Mane, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Yachty, Migos, MadeinTYO, Playboi Carti, Chief Keef, TK Kravitz, and others, and top-of-the-line production from the likes of Metro Boomin, Zaytoven, Nard & B, Cassius Jay, DJ Spinz, Honorable C-Note and others, Designer Drugz 3 is a non-stop collection of trap bangers, with Pablo Juan anchoring the album with his understated charisma and creative flows.

Explained HoodRich Pablo Juan in a recent interview with XXL: “Guwop told me, ‘When you call it a mixtape or an album, they judge it differently.’ Judge my shit differently. This is the album. It’s gonna be the last Designer Drugz.”

A card-carrying member of the Hoodrich crew, Pablo Juan is a prolific crafter of underground anthems. Signed to Gucci Mane’s 1017 Records, Pablo Juan has already released three projects this year, including Hoodwolf the collaboration with Hoodrich producer Danny Wolf. Well-respected throughout Atlanta for his hustle and his slick-talking rhymes, Pablo Juan hit it big earlier this year with “I Can,” a woodwind-heavy trap anthem featuring standout verses from all three members of Migos, which has racked up over 3.4 million streams on Spotify and earned a placement on Rap Caviar. Designer Drugz 3 is the proper follow-up to last year’s Designer Drugz 2, which featured appearances from Quavo, Takeoff, Johnny Cinco, Rich The Kid, Skippa Da Flippa and others.

The Background

Straight out of east Atlanta, Pablo Juan has come a long way from his humble beginnings. While his family instilled in him a strong moral code, it was his impoverished environment and the neighborhood OG’s that gave him the G code. Rapping wasn’t a part of his original life plan, but he did have a way with words and he also had a way with hustling. Combining his talents, the dapper MC churned out a string of underground anthems that caused the streets to talk and as fate would have it, Gucci Mane was one of the listeners. Now co-signed by La Flare himself on 1017 Records, the lyrical rock star is steadily building a career off of being an artist from which you never know what to expect.
