DEFINITION OF FRESH

Dirty Needles sharpens the blade on Pens x Needles , a dark, moody, 1995-leaning statement built for heads who like their rap unapologetic and their bars razor-clean. Inspired by Mobb Deep ’s Hell On Earth and guided by the discipline of Pendulum Ink, this project is written from the perspective of a student: studying the craft, applying the techniques, and turning lessons into layered lyricism with replay value. Production from Reese Tanaka , DJ GlibStylez , and Kollectiv sets the tone with heavy atmosphere, hard drums, and that raw underground feel, the perfect backdrop for Dirty Needles to carve through every track like it’s a final exam.
