For My Mama and Anyone Who Look Like Her (2021), Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!? (2023), McKinley Dixon
Across all music, ever, so many lyricists strive towards the profound but simply cannot – whether due to intelligence, decadence, skill, aloofness or summut else – achieve it. And that is, one must stress, fine. Lyricism does not have to always be exceptional and one should be content that so many even strive to exceptionality. McKinley Dixon should certainly be counted amongst those that can achieve profundity, a rapper as emotionally stirring, well-read, abstract-but-intimate, elegant, eloquent as the best.
Pick(s): ‘Mama’s Home (feat. Alfred)’, ‘Sun, I Rise’

I’m asking "please forgive for what I did when world was on my shoulders"
We bent the block so many times, car almost flipped right over
Said I became a better liar as I’ve gotten older
Is it 'cause the tongue got sharper, or 'cause my heart got colder?
- "Sun I Rise", Beloved! Paradise! Jazz!? (2023), McKinley Dixon
