King Hendrick$ — Mob America 2

Leaving the Lot has 43.4 million plays and earns them; the man can build a hook that sounds like a parking lot at two in the morning. There is real lineage here too. Building Castles on Black Sand got a ChopNotSlop edition this year, which places him inside the DJ Screw succession rather than next to it, and that is a craft decision most rappers at 364,000 monthly listeners would not bother to make. The problem is the count. Eight projects across 2024 and 2025, then Mob America 2 and Rari Pedal this year, is a supply schedule rather than a discography, and a song titled Anne Frank is reach dressed as edge. The screw remix proves he knows what a record is. Nothing else on the release calendar behaves like it.
