Tha God Fahim & Nicholas Craven’s New EP “Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap” Recaptures Energy from “TMWNQ3” Highlight (EP Review)
Nicholas Craven back once again with Tha God Fahim for his 47th EP. Starting as an affiliate of Griselda Records as well as being 1/3 of the Dump Gawds alongside Mach-Hommy & Your Old Droog, we also can’t ignore the massive discography that he’s managed to build for himself, some of the standouts include Breaking Through tha Van Allen Belts & Dump Assassins. But dude has been on a CRAZY ass EP run in 2023 with the standouts being the Camoflauge Monk-produced Dark Shogunn Assassin, the Nature Sounds-backed Iron Bull & the Nicholas Craven-produced Dump Gawd: Shot Clock King series, the Oh No-produced Berserko, Dump Gawd: Rhyme Pays produced by Mike Shabb, Tha Supreme Hoarder of All Pristine Wealth, Supreme Dump Legend: Soul Cook Saga produced by Cookin’ Soul & & more recently Machine Gun Vocabulary produced by Cartune Beatz. 5 years since Tha Myth Who Never Quit, we got a 2nd AND a 3rd installment last month & they’re maintaining the dumpin’ with Dump Gawd: Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap.
“Saiyan Pride” is this soulful boom bap intro reminding us of the fact that his catalogue is extensive on top of the mystic energy that he always brings whereas “A Nightmare You Can’t Come Back From” works in a chipmunk soul instrumental asking who’s as dope as him lyrically. “Dump Dynasty” hooks up a guitar sample with more kicks & snares making change by spitting flames prior to “10x Gravity” soulfully talking about his power level unable to be mapped out or calculated.
As for “Tha Riddle of Steel”, we have Fahim over a flute cautioning what will happen if you fuck with the known unknown just before “LSSJ” strips the drums altogether talking about MCs tryna weather the storm. “Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap 2” is a raw sequel to a Myth Who Never Quit 3 standout leading into “Tha Supreme Kai of Bean Pies” makes MCs meet death sampling soul once more, but then “Repetition” finishes the EP rhymin’ like a brewin’ storm.
Giving a couple weeks for both Tha Myth Who Never Quit 2 & Tha Myth Who Never Quit 3 to breathe, Breadrick Douglas & the greatest hip hop producer from Montréal recapture the same energy of the original “Hyperbolic Time Chamber Rap” track on the last EP & carried it over onto a 20 minute EP of it’s own. Nicholas Craven’s chipmunk soul-heavy boom bap & drumless sound has always brought the best out of the Dump Gawd, except I like this more than Tha Myth Who Never Quit 3 & almost as much as Tha Myth Who Never Quit 2.
Score: 9/10
