If you want to hear gritty, street-oriented hip hop music this Monday morning, look no further than Chief Tony and MeRCY’s new LP, Sophisticated Thuggery.

The album comes complete with heartfelt lyrics, sinister bars, hard drums, gutter beats, and rhyming prowess. Be sure to check out the first track off Sophisticated Thuggery – a monster of a record that finds Chief and MeRCY trading aggressive bars back and forth, showcasing their obvious chemistry. This is their most solid body of work to date, and they’re strengthening their collective brand every day. Get in tune above.
