The Deuce: Baton Rouge edition

Young Bleed - Walk Like Uh Husala
(From Preserved album; 2011)



My pick for the greatest Young Bleed album track nobody ever talks about. The way Bleed ends each line in the second verse by stretching out the last two words is the audio equivalent of a Louisiana pimp dragging his leg when he walks. Styles by the fibula.

WNC Whop Bezzy & 70th Street Carlos - Gz and Souljas
(From Out The Blue album; 2025)



A WNC flip of L.O.G's G's & Soldiers came outta that Bayou like a muskrat and makes the perfect B-side to WTF I Look Like. Really doe, there's no excuse for no Trel Itz A Hit beats on this Whop & Carlos album. Youse lads act like you've never heard South Louisiana Swag before.

Good to have Carlios back.

Just checked Out The Blue as well and you picked the 2 best tracks from that album lol.

I also like Mail Man and in particular Stop Moving.

DYS too.

Thought you'd like DYS too as it's as close to an homage to Do It Big we'll get in 2025.

I don't think I need an entire tape of these guys every year but boiled down to EP length it's better than I expected out of both of them in 2025.

I honestly don't remember liking a single Carlos song between 2020 and when you posted WTF. Stopped checking for him too so who knows what I've missed.

I checked the odd song here and there, but his delivery had gone to shit. He sounds good again here.
