At the end of a summer that saw a global pandemic, cities on fire with the rage of the black community, with BLM and widespread economic crises, NE$$ x baby J release new album '21st Century Blues'. A captivating and timely body of work that explores the nuances of life as a Black man navigating capitalism and oppression in the US. More than just a series of short stories about hustling and street life, the music exposes the viewpoint of a man that sees past the situation he faces and imagines a world that could be different. Refreshingly intimate and matter fact, NE$$ (Weekend Money, A-Alikes), a dynamic storyteller , muses, “how long am I gonna be duckin’ that long arm of the law / 3 in the morning peekin’ in peepholes / knock at the door / the trap, no better word no metaphor”.

In light of the ongoing global pandemic and 2020’s summer of protests followng the murder of George Floyd , this album is a much-needed release and speaks to current times. From songs like ‘Murder Porn’ that explores the police and state violence against the Black community, and the role social media plays into feeding graphic images into our conciousness , to ‘Black Love’ which explores the comradery and connection in relationships developed in a time of struggle and resistance, to ‘Buy My Mom A House’ which speaks of a street-level hustlers dream of changing the narrative of the oppression faced within his family and 'Ballad of A Broken Man’ which showcases some of the most heartbreaking lyrics seen in Hip-Hop since 2pacs ‘Brenda Had a Baby’.

Hip Hop has exposed to the world street life, the drug economy of America and the violence of the ghetto through Mobb Deep, NWA and Wu Tang it has also shown us the voice of resistance and change through Public Enemy, Dead Prez and Immortal Technique, and in a music scene swamped with sex, drugs and opulence '21st Century Blues' fills the space in the middle showing both struggles of the young Black man trapped in the system and the opportunities and hopes of the future that could be.
