In a rap world that's becoming more niche by the day, Northern California emcee Yae is foregoing the trendy practice of finding a lane and sticking to it, instead choosing to weave through every available rap lane and even spending some time on the median. All that is to say, Yae is a one of one, an emcee capable of hopping on the crispest of boom bap and ripping through cypher-ready raps, as well as groovy, G Funk-laced production where he might give you something smooth to ride to in the car. A veteran of California’s underground circuit, the lanky rapper towers over his competition, not just in stature, but with his braggadocios bars, his booming voice and charismatic approach to every beat he decides to grace with his presence. Yae has shared the mic with a who’s who of Northern California emcees, but with a catalog full of cult classics like Still Steezin and Black Hoody Season, he exists on an island all to himself. Now, Yae looks to meld all of the ingredients he’s cooked with before into a new kind of meal, and maybe form a new sound where he serves as not just the creator, but the master of arts. With pristine quality, unmatched versatility and creativity beyond the archaic hook-verse-hook-verse-hook format of yesteryear, Yae looks like the perfect emcee to break through the static mundanity of the current landscape, and pave a whole new lane on that highway he’s driven all over already
