Boldy James Dives Deep With Chuck Strangers On “Whale Fishing”

Boldy James is bringing back his signature sound with Token of Appreciation, and the first glimpse comes in the form of “Whale Fishing.” The Detroit lyricist taps producer Chuck Strangers for a dirty boom-bap vibe packed with raw sample flips and gritty loops.

After experimenting with trap influences on Permanent Ink and Murder During Drug Traffic, Boldy’s return to his grimy, unfiltered roots feels like a homecoming. To top it off, the album will be mixed and mastered by The Alchemist, ensuring that the sound hits just right.
