Critical Praise:
“..the members of Paper Route Empire reach a level of sincerity and emotional reflection that’s still hard to come by.” – Pitchfork
“Choosing some of the more interesting production to rhyme over, Jay Fizzle’s frankness and the flows he has on tap keep him in the convo as the whole city takes off.” – XXL Mag
“10 Rappers You Should Know Right Now” – DJ Booth
“The tape serves as both a testament to Memphis’ current rap preeminence and Fizzle’s own dexterity. He saves perhaps the hardest for last on the tape, attacking a looped vocal sample and towering percussion with ferocity.” – DJ Booth
“Jay Fizzle is a master of the searing street rap that serves as the bass-booming heart of Memphis music.” – The Hype Magazine
The Video:
Specializing in searing Memphis street anthems, Jay Fizzle represents his city to the fullest. Today, he shares the video for “Blue Takis,” a highlight track from his recent project Who Is Grizzape. Applying his slurred slick talk over bouncy, booming bass, Fizzle asserts his status as the hottest man in Memphis and warns his haters to keep their distance: “My shooters secure in the hood like the Pentagon / Remember I walked and take the school bus home / Now I pull up new foreign with the ceiling gone.” In the video, directed by Howard Ross, Fizzle posts up with his kids and his crew at his crib, chilling in a vintage blue Cadillac that matches the blue Takis he raps about.
“Blue Takis” is a highlight track from Jay Fizzle’s recent project Who Is Grizzape. Released over the summer, Who Is Grizzape is a feast of no-holds-barred Memphis music. The album is home to anthems like Front And Back Pocket,” which boasts a slowed sample of Young Dolph’s 2015 song “Boyz In The Hood,” and guest spots from PRE cohorts Big Moochie Grape and Kenny Muney, the Ayoza-produced “Mr. Freaky Man,” and the cinematic, JpOnThaTrack-produced “Bottom Boy Survivor.” Fizzle welcomes collaborators like his PRE compadre Key Glock, who joins him on “No Mo,” which also includes a posthumous verse from Big Scarr, and Memphis diva Kashh Mir hops on “Opp B*tch.” Who Is Grizzape is available to stream everywhere via Paper Route Empire. Check out Fizzle’s “Who Is Grizzape” mini-documentary, which details the rapper’s origin story and artistic process.
With Who Is Grizzape out now, Jay Fizzle is ready to let the world know who runs things in Bluff City. Sit back and watch him rise to the top of Memphis’s busy scene.
