Emerging rapper Tspokes shows love to her home state on her latest release, “Westcoast Matters.” The young lyricist serves tight bars over a smooth tempo, showing appreciation for her Southern California roots. With each verse, the rapper invokes a subtle head nod to the bass.
“Westcoast Matters” has a mellow hip-hop beat equipped with snares and keys. The bass is subtle yet prominent, hovering in the background. The rapper delivers fast-paced bars with an effortless bravado, each a different brag about the Golden State. Her timing is calculated as her voice takes a stylized inflection reminiscent of West Coast rap. She spits the chorus, “Say it loud, I’m from the West and I’m proud,” before giving a shoutout to Kobe Bryant, Nipsey Hussle, and Drakeo The Ruler.
The rapper continues to garner buzz on social media, sharing freestyles and snippets of new music. Most notably, she shared a freestyle over Tony! Toni! Tone! “Anniversary” instrumental. One follower comments, “True talent. This is the female rap we need rn. Keep going.” With hard-hitting lyricism and wild energy, Tspokes is one of the most versatile rappers not only in the underground scene but female rap as a whole. She is a hidden gem soon to be a household name in hip-hop.
