Review: RPxSB & Nomadic – “Shaggy Carpets”(EP)

Roddy Picante & Stay-Bizzy(RPxSB)run laps around the competition with an exciting, new opus crafted by Nomadic. On “Shaggy Carpets,” the duo settle into chill mode to deliver seven surefire sizzlers for your daily rotation. The Ron Bluu featured “Planet X” kicks things off with an electric guitar fueled intro before transitioning into the laid back title track. Listeners are treated to a wealth of reflective lyrics on a cut that conjures summer cook out vibes. “Detrimental” offers a slightly more upbeat soundscape that counter the gloomy mood conveyed in the verses. And with “Mr. Sensual/Boom Boom Room” our musical tour guides take flight on a seductive slice of audio euphoria that transforms into a pure blast of energy.

“Space Dust” combines soulful grooves with a classic Al Green backbeat for a selection that serves as a highlight of the project. “Chinchilla” keeps things funky via an exotic loop and compelling arrangement while “Red Eye” concludes the set with G-Funk infused grooves and more reality rhymes you’ll never forget. Overall, Shaggy Carpets” is a solid release from the burgeoning bar slayers. Nomadic’s production will help them climb the ladder of success & expand to bigger markets worldwide.
