Maxo Kream

“Every line arrives like deftly paced camerawork, as Maxo constructs a scene worthy of a Scorcese film.” – Rolling Stone

“The secret to keeping every song so effortless and flowing, regardless of subject matter, is in the phrasing. He can boil something as complicated as friends betraying each other down to a simple and clever line.” – Pitchfork

“Maxo Kream is one of the smartest, funniest, rawest rappers out of Houston (or anywhere), a gifted storyteller with a drawl that draws you in and an eye for detail that holds your attention” – Stereogum

“His best songs are stuffed with so many specific names and places that the listener has no choice but to believe what they’re hearing as true. It’s rare for me to believe anything a rapper says these days, but with Maxo it’s different. His vulnerability and clear-sighted perspective when recounting traumatic events leads me to believe Maxo is a reliable narrator” – Passion of the Weiss

“Houston rapper Maxo Kream has been dropping singles lately, and his conversational, melodic style remains addictive each time.” – BrooklynVegan

“His discography deals in-depth with the family struggle. It’s also a reminder for all of us to listen to the whole story. Otherwise, you inevitably miss a crucial piece of the incredibly complex puzzle of his life: poverty, gang culture, his complicated relationship with his parents as an immigrant son.” – NPR
