Racking up numbers with his streetwise bangers, Pressure 9X19 is on his way to Latin trap stardom. Digging deep into his lore on his latest heater, Pressure shares “Philly Boy,” an ode to the city where he spent much of his early life. Rhyming over an apocalyptic instrumental with a sniper’s precision, the rhymer who calls himself El Rey de las rápidas recounts his hard-living youth in Northeast Philly and how it made him the man he is today. In the video, Pressure returns to the city of his birth, gathering a crew on Weymouth Street as he flaunts the riches he’s earned with his music.
Released by 10K Projects, Pressure’s new single is the follow-up to his smash hit “VVS Switch.” Released in October, the Bobby Caldwell-sampling song experienced a steady and organic rise to the Latin charts, racking up over 113 million streams across platforms. The song’s popularity in the Latin trap community drew immense interest, with superstar Latin artists clamoring to get on the remix. The interest prompted Pressure to release a mega-sized, 9-minute remix of the song featuring seven of the biggest names in Latin music: AnuelAA, YovngChimi, Hades66, C Dobleta & Luar La L. “VVS Switch” (Remix) quickly took off, peaking at #15 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart earlier this year (the remix currently sits at #44 on that chart).
As “VVS Switch” goes up, and “Philly Boy” follows, the Glizzy Gang chieftain is raising his profile in a big way. With over 13 million streams per week on his catalog, Pressure is cooking up much more music, as he seeks to fulfill his superstar destiny.
