CHOMPPA Drops 5-Track EP “Hesitate”
Subcarbon Records, the esteemed imprint founded by Ganja White Night, is thrilled to announce the release of CHOMPPA’s transformative EP, Hesitate. The latest to come from Washington D.C.-based talent signifies a celebrated return to Subcarbon Records, building on the innovative legacy established by his earlier works such as “Subconscious”, and the notable remix of Walter Wilde and Subdocta’s “Suga”, to name a few.
“After struggling to figure out my sound in the first few years of the CHOMPPA project, I’m finally confident that I’m doing something right. The recent live support from some of my idols and production inspirations has driven me to work even harder. Releasing these tunes with SubCarbon is a monumental full-circle moment for me, as I debuted my new alias with them in 2019 and to come back 5 years later with a full EP just feels like the universe’s plan. It’s an honor to work with grime MCs like Slowie and Rivibes, both have unique flows to their lyrics that complement my production perfectly. I’ve honestly never been more proud of a project in my life and I hope that pride resonates with the listeners.” – CHOMPPA
