Cairo-based versatile rapper and artist Profy delivers a memorable performance in the track “Eritrea to Cali” featuring Big Caz and Nipsey Hussle.

When it comes to hip-hop anomalies, Cairo, Egypt-based emcee Profy stands atop the hierarchy as a clever deviation from the ordinary and the expected, capturing the imagination of any listener with his lyrical sagacity and delivery prowess. As such, he effortlessly infects the listener with his palpable passion for his craft, allowing them to feel right beside him as the story unfolds. He is a musical gift that keeps on giving, hoping to leave an indelible mark with his style and inspire others like him to make their marks too in this transient space.

When it comes to hip-hop and rap music, nothing quite hits a listener; it feels like a nostalgic sound inspired by the golden age. That’s why, right from the very opening minutes of the track “Eritrea to Cali,” a listener can’t help but feel that they have been hit right in the nostalgia thanks to these classic-inspired beats.

The track comes off very raw and analog, characterized by its simple yet powerful drum machine rhythms that provide scenery for Profy’s lyrical awareness and showcase. He sets the foundation for this track, blending some clever wordplay, rhythmic flows, and scene-stealing cadence to get his message across.

I love the specific details they did with the turntable scratches backed by the catchy repeated hooks, “I’m on a block,” For me, this is one of the most conspicuous elements of the tune and, essentially, one that stays with a listener long after the final notes fade away.

Collaborating with A-listers Big Caz and the late Nipsey Hussle, “Eritrea to Cali” is a certified masterpiece that is expected to further elevate Profy into international acclaim. It is a track that paints him as the future of hip-hop, as he puts Egypt on the map as much as his name.

To enjoy this classic tune with timeless appeal, check the link attached and play it on repeat at every opportunity.
