Sugarhill Ddot - 3am In The Yams - Live Session | Vevo ctrl

Nestled in the strip of land just south of where the Harlem and Hudson Rivers meet lies the historic district of Sugar Hill. Famously, its ten block radius of concrete and high rises was the Mesopotamia of jazz during the middle of the last century. A few decades later, the Harlem enclave played a similar role for the hip-hop movement. These days it’s a hot spot for NYC’s drill scene, begetting artists such as Darrian Jimenez, a teenager who proudly reps his hood as Sugarhill Ddot. Like many of his contemporaries, the young spitter recounts daily violence and beefs with horrific yet unbothered detail. His first official release “Too Tact” was a gripping blast of aggression, and follow-ups such as “Evil Twins, Pt. 2” and “Spinnin’” were equally furious. A fun trait of the genre is the sampling of wildly popular songs; For instance, Ddot’s “Stop Cappin” will forever alter the way you listen to Eurythmic’s “Sweet Dreams.” Now signed to revamped Priority Records, more avenues are opening up for the youngster who also has a soft side as heard on viral smash “Let Ha Go.” That includes showing off his skills (and gleaming new ice) on ctrl. Way to make Sugar Hill proud, kid.
