The Alabama-born Jerk Rap pioneer Yhapojj, heralded by Rolling Stone as “the vanguard of underground rap,” has just shared his new single “Flock” along with an accompanying music video. Coming in at just over a minute in runtime, the lovesick track is grounded in a glitchy instrumental and arrives amidst the Alabama native’s current run of live shows alongside Bktherula and skaiwater on the former’s nationwide I Just Wanna Be Me Tour ahead of his upcoming performance at NYC’s Restless Fest with Nettspend and OsamaSon.
“Flock” follows the release of Yhapojj’s recent project P.S. Fuck You as well as a sold-out run of shows in Atlanta, Los Angeles, and New York, where he brought out Trippie Redd and performed alongside artists like Bear1Boss and Marlon DuBois. Led by a string of singles including “hope ulike me” (1.7M+ Streams), the danceable “Make Sum Noise”, and the defiant collaboration with Lil Tony, “SSwerve Geeked”, P.S. Fuck You is a euphoric culmination of Yhapojj’s melodic, genre-defying sound and features production from underground staples like FearDorian, Devstacks, and OK across the project’s 17 tracks. Rooted in bouncy, trap-leaning instrumentals and animated lyricism, Yhapojj experiments with his vocal performances, delivering a healthy balance of anthemic flexes and introspective musings.
