These four unruly tracks arise for his first outing with triumphant builds that demolish the generic bass music.
When you feel against the world, RANKZ shared, “a big F***OFF to everyone who laughed and thought you were a joke at the start of your journey. A big middle finger to everyone who said ‘no way, that’s impossible – the odds are so slim.” He says he “started this project with the goal of creating something that represents a big F***YOU, with social norms that keep you away from chasing your dreams.” It’s clear that The rebellion is the definition of what RANKZ is.
