Rising hip-hop artist Mvss teams up with Baltimore’s Butch Dawson for “Fundamental”, a compelling single that sets the tone for his highly anticipated EP, Revolt. With its sharp lyricism, cultural introspection, and empowering themes, “Fundamental” cements Mvss as a standout voice in modern hip-hop.
Born in Washington, D.C., and shaped by his experiences in Monrovia, Liberia, Mvss channels his multicultural upbringing into his music, blending deeply personal storytelling with sharp cultural commentary. In “Fundamental”, he reflects on the lessons and tools handed down through generations, especially through the lens of the African American experience. “‘Fundamental’ represents the tools passed down from many to succeed and prosper in this world,” Mvss explains.
The track’s foundation is built on resilience and self-determination, a message that resonates across today’s social and cultural landscape. Featuring Butch Dawson’s smooth, complementary verse, the song achieves a balance of introspection and energy.
Mvss’ ability to weave modern production with classic hip-hop influences shines throughout “Fundamental”. A layered beat underscores his precise cadences and thoughtful lyricism, creating a track that is as engaging sonically as it is thematically. Butch Dawson’s guest appearance elevates the energy, adding depth and perspective to the track’s core message.
Mvss’ debut EP, The Mvss Show (2019), introduced a rising talent with raw storytelling ability and cultural awareness. With Revolt, he takes his artistry to new heights, aiming to challenge societal norms and spark meaningful dialogue. Inspired by the voices of today’s youth and the state of the world, the upcoming EP positions Mvss as not just a musician but a voice for unity and social change.
