Toronto-based artist Nec Nymbl is a veteran of the underground hip-hop scene, known for his deep crate-digging and meticulous production style. With influences ranging from Pete Rock and J Dilla to The Alchemist and DJ Muggs, his sound is a fusion of raw boom bap, soulful grooves, and cinematic textures. After a long hiatus from the public eye, Nec has resurfaced with a vault of rare instrumentals and a renewed focus on preserving the purity of hip-hop.

Right from the jump, Appetizer Afterthoughts sets a tone of introspection and raw authenticity. The eerie boom bap beat, layered with rich samples and intricate switch-ups, creates an immersive soundscape that pulls listeners deep into the track’s world. The production is reminiscent of golden-era hip-hop—grimy yet soulful, intricate yet effortlessly head-nodding.

Lyrically, Sankofa delivers a masterclass in wordplay, vivid imagery, and sharp storytelling. His intricate rhyme schemes and poetic cadence elevate the track, making every verse feel like a well-crafted narrative. There’s a certain weight to his delivery—each line feels deliberate, filled with thought-provoking metaphors and intellectual depth.

The outro stands out as a defining moment, wrapping up the track with a sense of finality while leaving room for reflection. It’s clear that Appetizer Afterthoughts is not just a song; it’s an experience—a sonic journey through underground hip-hop’s rawest elements.
