Underrated lyricists seem to call home to Chicago more than any hip-hop capital of the moment. And even amongst them, Just Adam is able to stand out through his coalescence of lyrical ability and effortless delivery. His newest single – which probably won’t be the prolific rapper’s newest for long – is LA. And akin to every track he puts out, it’s unique and is able to find a new, experimental lane. Rising a piano-driven beat, Just Adam drops effortless bar after bar before diving headfirst into a slowed breakdown to close it all out. Keep an eye out for the Chicago wordsmith as we head into 2020. If the year comes to be one marked by poeticism and penmanship, he’ll continue carving out his niche.
