Chicago rapper Chris Crack has achieved a dedicated cult following for his prolific output (four projects in 2020 and two in 2021), the consistent strength of his lyricism, and his riotous sense of humor. You just aren't beating song titles like "Jesus Dropped The Charges," "Side Pussy Might Save The Marriage," and "Ice Cream Machine Wasn't Broke in the '90s," so don't even try. Tuesday marks the release of his first 2022 full-length, a surprise release called Growthfully Developed.
Most of the 18 new songs are bite-sized, with the longest clocking in at just over three minutes, but Crack stuffs each one with memorable lines delivered with a lean, muscular flow reminiscent of Nipsey Hussle's. According to the project's executive producer Travonne Edwards, the project was recorded in one night. "Spent countless hours going through songs and beats and we were able to put this ART out."
