Today's delivery is brought to you by Memphis native June. The TN-to-CA rapper has been making waves with his debut project EVOL, and by the sound of his project, he's ready to break through. The track I'm bringing to you today is entitled "City Love", which has long been a favorite record of mine. Produced by June's brother Teddy Walton, "City Love" is an ode to Memphis hip-hop, sampling the fellow Memphis OGs Three 6 Mafia while adding a hint of Houston's sound. Some of the highlights of the song itself lie within Teddy's soulful production, where he flawlessly blends beautiful samples of Sir Charles Jones' "Just Can't Let Go" and Aaliyah's "At Your Best" before really sparking the instrumental with Three 6. June goes to work with his chill verses, and the result is a song you can put on 3peat. The Tennessee newcomer has been gaining major attention from every major hip-hop magazine, and it will come as no surprise if he continues to improve. Sit back and vibe to that "City Love".
