C.O.M Young Rico, Never of Crucial Conflict & DJ Mannie Faces Declare “IM HIM”

Chicago hip-hop connects across generations as C.O.M Young Rico, Never of Crucial Conflict, and DJ Mannie Faces join forces for the official video for “IM HIM.”

The collaboration brings together confidence, experience, and independent hustle. More importantly, “IM HIM” feels like a statement. This is music built around knowing your value and standing on the work that got you there.

. The track was produced by Rocky On The Track, while DaWreck handled the visuals.

C.O.M Young Rico Makes His Statement

From the title alone, “IM HIM” establishes the tone.

C.O.M Young Rico approaches the record with the confidence of an artist who understands where he is going. Instead of waiting for outside validation, the message centers on self-belief, consistency, and owning your position.

That approach fits Rico’s recent musical run. His catalog includes projects such as RICO’S WORLD VOL2, along with records including “Overtime,” “Fly Shit,” and “The Message.” Apple Music currently lists “IM HIM” among his featured songs.

However, this collaboration also carries extra weight because Rico is not making the statement alone.

Never of Crucial Conflict Adds Chicago History

Adding Never of Crucial Conflict gives “IM HIM” another layer.

Crucial Conflict helped build an important chapter of Chicago hip-hop. Therefore, bringing Never into a collaboration with a newer independent voice creates a bridge between different eras of the city’s music scene.

Never’s presence brings veteran energy to the record without taking away from its current feel. His catalog continues to grow as well, with Apple Music listing releases and collaborations stretching through 2026.

That connection makes “IM HIM” feel bigger than a routine feature. It represents independent Chicago artists working together while respecting the foundation that came before them.

DJ Mannie Faces Helps Bring the Collaboration Together

DJ Mannie Faces completes the lineup.

Known for connecting artists, records, and independent movements, Mannie Faces has built a catalog that includes the Crowd Control series, La Familia Vol. 1, and Nap York City. “IM HIM” also appears among his highlighted releases across streaming platforms.

That role matters.

DJs have always been an important part of hip-hop’s ecosystem. They introduce records, create collaborations, break artists, and help independent music travel beyond its original market.

On “IM HIM,” that same collaborative spirit is present.

“IM HIM” Is Built on Confidence

At its core, “IM HIM” is about confidence.

Not manufactured confidence.

Earned confidence.

The type that comes from continuing to work when recognition does not arrive immediately.

That idea gives the record its identity. C.O.M Young Rico delivers the hunger. Never brings veteran presence. DJ Mannie Faces helps connect the pieces.

Meanwhile, Rocky On The Track provides the production foundation, and DaWreck turns the collaboration into a visual release.

Together, the team delivers a record designed for listeners who understand the difference between talking about the grind and actually living it.

Independent Hip-Hop Continues to Move

One of the strongest elements surrounding “IM HIM” is what the collaboration represents.

Independent artists no longer have to wait for a traditional industry machine to create meaningful records. Instead, artists, DJs, producers, videographers, media outlets, and supporters can build their own ecosystem.

C.O.M Young Rico, Never of Crucial Conflict, and DJ Mannie Faces show what that can look like.

The record connects an independent artist on the rise with an established Chicago hip-hop name and a DJ who continues to create platforms for new music.

That combination makes “IM HIM” worth watching.
