William Prize Talks The Release Of His LP "Dirty Game"
By: Omar Cook
North Carolina rapper William Prize dropped one of the hottest projects of this year, titled Dirty Game! If you’re looking for a complete project, no SKIPS, this is it! The title of the project speaks speaks to his perspective on 2020 as a whole.
“The name of this project is based on 2020’s vibes as a whole. It’s been a rough year… A lot of death, change, and setbacks so the name dirty game describes all of that I feel.”
His previous project “I am Prize Vol” was solid and this project definitely did not disappoint. Prize is preparing to release his 1st album in the near future.
“Honestly I just wanted to ride the waves of my last project “I am Prize vol. 1” while getting people excited for my first official album “Up From Here”. Also these are a bunch of loose tracks, and tracks that didn’t make the albums revision.”
It’s hard to choose a top track for this project but our favorites for this project are “Hibachi” and “Clocxs” as both speak to real situations in relationships as well as bring a true 90s hip hop vibe.
“For me the answer my favorite tracks are interchangeable between the songs “Dirty Game” and the following track “Rebox”. Both songs intel a lot of things that perspired during my personal life and all of the current events occurring in the media, particularly in the African American and Latino communities, while also giving off crazy vibes with production from myself and Cidy Pyramids. Both of those are more than necessary listens!”
William Prize separates himself from other mainstream artists out today by continuing to evolve from project to project and maintaining authenticity within his lyrics by speaking on real issues. Progression is an element that Prize expects to push his projects forward.
“The progression for sure, that’s really what you can expect from any of my next projects; progression, and it being the separating factor from my last.”
With the pandemic affecting the world in many different ways, artists have had to adapt and stay creative, which is not an easy task.
“I think the pandemic gave me time to get more creative, take it back to the garage days with this shit, you know? Also gave me a lot of time to cross my t’s and dot my i’s business wise so it wasn’t hard staying focused at all for me.”
Dirty Game is a definite must listen and a good preliminary project to set up his album release.
“‘UP FROM HERE’ COMING SOON ! THATS IT! I just wanna thank everyone for tapping into this interview and with my music as well, it means a lot to me.”
