Produced by Willhouse and sharpened with signature DJ cuts from Tone Spliff, the record leans heavily into the traditional boom bap sound
Massachusetts lyricist Pxlicy is continuing to build serious momentum with the hard-hitting boom bap single “Hit The Crates.” The track brings together underground standouts Apathy and A-F-R-O, creating a powerful collaboration that celebrates raw lyricism and classic hip-hop energy.
Produced by Willhouse and sharpened with signature DJ cuts from Tone Spliff, the record leans heavily into the traditional boom bap sound. Gritty drums, sample-driven production, and razor-sharp bars from all three emcees make the track a clear homage to hip-hop’s crate-digging roots.
The response from listeners has been immediate. “Hit The Crates” recently surged onto the Canadian iTunes charts, climbing all the way to #5. For an independent release rooted in classic hip-hop tradition, the milestone speaks volumes about the demand for authentic boom bap in today’s music landscape.
Pxlicy has been steadily expanding his reach through touring and high-profile collaborations, including performing alongside Apathy on multiple runs across the country. With records like “Hit The Crates,” he continues to solidify his place among a new generation of artists keeping the lyrical side of hip-hop alive while pushing the culture forward.
As the single continues to gain traction, the collaboration stands as another strong reminder that raw bars, sharp production, and authentic Hip Hop chemistry still resonate with fans worldwide.
