remained true to his street values. Daring his opposition to question his credentials, the 30-year-old rapper shares Ask About Me, a new mixtape created in collaboration with Detroit-based producer The ATG. Wielding his raspy voice like a weapon, Reese speaks from experience, telling street stories with raw lyricism and harrowing detail. His weathered vocal fits perfectly within the orchestral trap sound perfected by The ATG, who combines the cinematic feel of Atlanta rap with the racing pianos and rolling snares of his hometown of Detroit. The new tape features recent singles like “IDK,” in which a bewildered Reese wonders who could possibly stop him, and the speaker-knocking “What Happened,” a warning shot aimed at snitches across the globe. The follow-up to last year’s Demon Time, the first collaboration between Reese and The ATG, Ask About Me is available everywhere via Kyyba Music
Emerging from the streets as a leader of the first wave of drill, Lil Reese first came to national attention as the lone featured artist on Chief Keef‘s breakout hit “I Don’t Like.” The momentum from that earth-shattering hit brought much attention to Don’t Like, Reese’s debut mixtape, which was hosted by DJ Drama and featured the hit single “Us,” which received a remix featuring Rick Ross and Drake. As an emissary of drill’s Class of 2012, Reese has continued to make hard-nosed street music, collaborating with his fellow Chicago native Lil Durk on 2017’s Supa Vultures EP, and continuing his signature Supa Savage mixtape series through 2021’s Supa Savage 3, featuring guest spots from Young Dolph and his close cohort Chief Keef.
The ATG is a rising sound architect in Detroit, having previously collaborated with city stalwarts like Peezy and Icewear Vezzo.
