Vincent Projects Turns Hip Hop Nostalgia Into a Small Cosmic Journey on His Four Song EP “Nebula”

Vincent Projects leans hard into nostalgia on his newest release, “Nebula,” and he makes it feel earned instead of recycled. The EP moves with an intergalactic frame of mind, like a little sonic vault you can keep reopening without it losing its shine. There’s a sweet sense of origin story here too, he came up as a devoted listener first, then grew into the kind of creator who knows how to honor classic hip hop while still letting his own imagination steer.

“Nebula” is a 4-track EP, tight at 12 minutes and 14 seconds, but it carries itself like a bigger world. Vincent Projects keeps the ideas dense and the pacing brisk, dropping four distinct scenes and exiting before the momentum fades.

The opener, “Nebulafrequency,” hits right in the feels. Boom-bap influence sits at the core, supported by clever rhymes, quick punchlines, and those turntable scratches that refuse to leave your head. A few well placed effects flicker around the edges. In the story he’s telling, the frequency climbs and the commander takes charge, rallying the crew with a calm, confident urgency.

Track two, “Astro Valley,” pushes deeper into the narrative. It plays like a thriller, cinematic, emotionally turned up, as the galaxy starts to look less like a sketch and more like a living setting. “Intergalacticsphere” follows with a k-dot-esque edge, at least to my ears, as Vincent Projects slips between alter egos and tones. He shapeshifts smoothly over ear-gracing instrumentation, keeping the listener locked in even as the mood keeps changing.

The closer, “Subway to the Stars,” takes the biggest swing. It’s experimental and bright, pulling an electro-funk glow across his signature hip hop foundation. This is the one that makes you want to move, volume up, giving in to the joy of it.

In terms of his place in the hip hop universe, Vincent Projects is doing more than fine. If you want something to cruise with on a long stretch of highway, “Nebula” is an easy pick, now streaming on all popular digital platforms.
