Premier: Gwala DeNiro turns tragedy into art on “2Pac, Biggie, Bankroll”

Gwala DeNiro has been noticably quiet as of late, with his epic remix of Kodak Black’s Skrrt Skrrt being the only recent drop. The Columbus, MS native stated in a passionate Facebook post that the timing just hasn’t quite felt right to drop music, but recent circumstances have changed that. Fueled by a sense of lacking support due to certain events going on locally in Columbus, Gwala shows up with “2Pac, Biggie, Bankroll”.

The record keeps with the street yet relatable sensibilities that tend to come from DeNiro and his Block Republican imprint. The artist pulls inspiration from some of Hip-Hop’s tragedies both old and new, crafting it from a perspective of someone looking to avoid the fate that graced such rappers in the past. J’Mark provides some production that is a perfect fit for the song’s vibe, with clips from the news coverage reports from Bankroll Fresh, Doe B and other’s untimely deaths throughout.

Stream below and be on the lookout for the upcoming Leaders EP from Gwala DeNiro.
