In the realm of Boom Bap, where beats are as crucial as the rhymes themselves, Chrome Waves and Just Vic’s collaboration “Program” stands out as a testament to the genre’s enduring power. Released on July 11, 2024, as part of their forthcoming album Rhymes You Can Trust, this track exemplifies a deep respect for East Coast hip-hop while infusing it with a distinctly UK edge.
“Program” is a riveting blend of classic Boom Bap elements and modern UK rap sensibilities. The track showcases Chrome Waves, renowned for his mastery of lofi and Boom Bap beats, and Just Vic, a London rapper whose storytelling is as vivid as it is impactful. Their collaboration reflects a shared admiration for East Coast legends like Black Moon and Mobb Deep, and it’s clear that this influence reverberates through every beat and verse.
