West Seattle rapper and ThraxxHouse member SneakGuapo’s Konica EP strikes an eerie blend between calm and menacing, Guapo’s monotone rapping measures paranoia, celebration, and violence with equally haunting weight against booming, hypnotic production. While Konica is probably best experienced as a unit (with or without the help of your downers of choice, no judgments or recommendations here), standout middle trio “Laying In The Sand,” “Martha Stewart,” and “Known Assassin” show the formula at its most effective.
