Unleashing a barrage of rhymes with a purpose, storied rapper and “the soul of Philly” KUR reveals a brand new mixtape entitled Loyal To A Fault today via Meek Mill’s DreamChasers and Roc Nation/Republic Records.
The 12-track collection boasts the single “Love.” His dynamic delivery cuts through thick 808s as he alternates between breathless bars and a hypnotic harmony. Living up to every word with conviction, he promises, “I did this shit out of love.” Stay tuned for the official music video. Elsewhere on the project, “Pressure” pushes through as a highlight. He initially paved the way for the project with “Seasons” released earlier this summer.
Recently KUR lit up the internet with his lyrical power displayed on his Bars I-95 Freestyle and interview. Continuing to bring that raw energy to the mic, KUR is hitting the stage at Made In America festival in Philadelphia on Sunday, September 4th.
Drumming up palpable buzz, this release follows KUR’s bundle of songs entitled The Hold Over which included single “For My Fam.” Watch the music video for “For My Fam”—HERE. Receiving critical acclaim, another standout was “Road To The Riches.” HotNewHipHop described him as a “talented lyricist,” and Essence highlighted it among “New Music This Week.” The project also boasts previously released “Sheist,” “Let’s Talk,” and “Play It Cool.” About the bundle, Passion of the Weiss noted, “KUR has leveraged his natural ability to think as a buffer between the things that could be and the things that are.” Raydar Magazine further applauded KUR as, “Philadelphia’s Beacon of Possibility In Hip-Hop.” To kick off the summer KUR delivered a hometown performance at the Roots Picnic on June 4th.
