Dear Psilocybin - Zelooperz & Real Bad Man (2025)

modern times: a week of some recent releases

ZelooperZ is a rapper (and a pretty interesting painter) in the orbit of both Danny Brown and JPEGMAFIA.

There’s a little Future-style mumble-rap vibe to his flow, but he still has a lot of coherence and structure underneath.

Real Bad Man is a producer I don’t know much about, but he’s done collab albums with both Boldy James and Pink Siifu that I’ve really liked.

This one is pretty wild as well. All the beats are crowded and busy, but lay down a good path for the vocal.

Tracks I Liked

World Blew - gives you the impression that he just lags behind the beat at first, but there’s a weird polyrhythmic method to the madness

In The Wind - an Alchemist feature just adds to the west coast sound of this one

Trenchblade - horn blasts and organ make this one awesome
