Lucasraps

Lucasraps

​As his name suggests, Lucasraps prides himself in his ability to spit. And with a Nasty C co-sign under his belt, one can be convinced that he raps really well. The rapper’s fast-paced flow displayed on Blxckie’s “Big Time Sh’lappa” and “Ah ah ah ah”, is breathtaking and exciting. His distorted 808-laden, moshpit-inducing songs have thousands of plays on SoundCloud, while his single “Without You” and contribution to Dr. Peppa’s 2019 amapiano and hip-hop crossover hit “What It Is” proves that he can make club/radio-friendly songs, as well, which is always an advantage for any new wave rapper trying to break through into the mainstream.
