Internet A&R’s, your prayers have been answered! Rome Streetz and Daringer are joining forces for the highly anticipated collaborative project, Hatton Garden Holdup, which will be released on 10.4.24.
The duo announced their alignment with the project’s first single and video “Starbvxkz.” The single, and video shot by Coach Bombay in the White City housing projects of West London made an immediate impact. Billboard stated “Rome raps like a box cutter to grill over Daringer’s production,” and Uproxx added, “you know what you’re getting with Griselda affiliates, gritty; double-entendre riddled street raps over some of the grimiest production you’re likely to hear in modern hip-hop.”
Now, Rome and Darimger are back with the second single from Hatton Garden Holdup, “Sage,” which features Schoolboy Q. This Griselda/TDE connection can also be attributed to the strength of the internet, as Rome confirms “Q is one of my favorite artists. “Sage” came about because I did an interview and mentioned I would love to work with him. Q saw the clip on X, hit me up and we made it happen.” With “Sage,” Rome and Q burn the “Sage” as they try to keep evil away; and continue “turning grief into gold.” “Sage” is now available at all DSP’s.
Hatton Garden Holdup is a project that has been anticipated since Rome and Daringer connected on Rome’s Griselda Records debut album Kiss The Ring. Though they have moved adjacently since the union has finally come to fruition, and Rome & Daringer deliver a project that is both raw and refined and pushes the envelope in terms of both sound and storytelling; blending street tales with production that is always captivating.
Rome Streetz is fresh off his quick-strike project, Buck 50, which he released earlier this year and the final installment of his ambitious Noise Kandy Series, Noise Kandy 5 which was released in late 2023.
For the better part of a decade, Daringer has created a distinctive sonic landscape that has become synonymous with the “Griselda Sound.” Known for his ability to craft everything from dark, gritty canvases to more melodic, jazz-infused productions, Daringer’s influence has been felt across nearly every release from the Griselda camp, including Westside Gunn, Benny The Butcher, and Conway The Machine. Daringer has also added his unique touch to projects from Action Bronson; Blue Chips, White Bronco, Only For Dolphins, Cocodrillo Turbo, and Johann Sebastian Bachlava The Doctor with Action Bronson, and he recently produced the entirety of Black Vladimir, a collaborative project with another of his “Fu*k That’s Delicious” cohorts Meyhem Lauren.
