A 21-year-old rapper with the grizzled wisdom of a veteran, OMB Peezy imbues a deep sense of struggle and morality into his rapidfire rhymes. Returning with his second full-length project, Peezy announcesPreacher to the Streets, his debut studio album. Endlessly thoughtful about the struggle inherent in street life, Preacher To The Streets finds Peezy relaying detailed hood tales, reflecting on his past and offering life lessons borne out of his upbringing in Mobile, Alabama. Rhyming over production from Drum Dummy, Cassius Jay, Helluva, and many others, Preacher to the Streets leans into Peezy’s Southern roots, reverberating with twangy guitar and warm organ. Featuring appearances from T.I., Lil Durk, Boosie, G-Eazy, Sada Baby, and William King, Preacher To The Streets arrives spring 2019 via 300 Ent./Sick Wid It Records.
Reveling in his newfound riches, Peezy hosts a porch party in “No Keys,” his latest video. A breezy and headphone ready rider’s anthem, “No Keys” will make you wish it was BBQ season as Peezy and guestG-Eazy discuss their ways with women and their taste in luxury cars (button-start only, no keys in the ignition). Tying up his dreads and ghost riding in his yellow sports car, Peezy hosts the hottest party in his Oakland neighborhood, bringing out all the ingredients for an A-1 East Bay bash–models, booze, and E-40. Premiered by Complex, who called Peezy “one of the Bay’s most promising rappers,” “No Keys” is the perfect way to let a little West Coast sunshine into the dreary late winter months.
Nearly two years after his debut single “Lay Down” put Peezy on the map, the motormouthed emcee shared Loyalty Over Love, his debut full-length, in summer 2018. Stuffed with glistening Dirty South instrumentals, Loyalty Over Love is the culmination of Peezy’s rise, with sharp lyrics about his life as a rising star and his struggles with the legal system. Featuring appearances from Mozzy, Paper Lovee, and OMB Iceberg,Loyalty Over Love was released by Sick Wid It Records/300 Ent. Peezy treated fans to another revealing glimpse when he shared Behind The Title: Loyalty Over Love, a FADER-premiered mini-doc that explains the main themes behind the album. Stay tuned for Preacher To The Streets, coming this spring.
