Pressa continues to make his presence felt in Toronto hip-hop, with recent tracks like W Hotel showing that even during quieter stretches, he still delivers. On his new single with Hunxho, Nasty, he proves once again that he can fire off raw verses and build heavy tension, even over a beat that feels airy and dreamlike.
The production here does not lean on a strong melody, relying instead on hazy synths and tight, steady drums layered beneath the vocals. The atmosphere mirrors the lyrics, which dive into a lust-filled and intoxicating encounter between two lovers. Still, within all the spaciousness of the beat, there is a darker tone that both Pressa, known for Minimum Wage, and Hunxho bring out in their verses.
Hunxho, the Ain’t Tha Truth rapper, contrasts Pressa’s hushed delivery with a more forceful and commanding presence. His flow lands with weight, even if Pressa’s subdued style feels like the better fit for the mood of Nasty. Together, the two create a balance that shows off their chemistry, giving listeners a glimpse of what future collaborations could bring.
With reports that Pressa has new label deals lined up this year, fans are curious to see if that means more releases in 2025. But even if he steps back after Nasty, the track should satisfy longtime listeners who appreciate his signature style. This moody, icy sound has become part of Toronto’s lasting stamp on hip-hop, and Pressa remains one of the voices keeping it alive.

Michigan rappers are known for creating cool, measured chemistry over light and stripped back beats, and Peezy and Babyfxce E continue that tradition on their latest track, "I Can't Tell." The song focuses on the many kinds of women they enjoy spending time with, as both artists fill their verses with playful lines and funny hooks without losing sight of the main subject. Shadowy piano notes and steady, understated hi hats give the record its familiar Michigan sound while allowing both performers to remain front and center. Although the release does not introduce anything groundbreaking or take either rapper in a different direction, it fully delivers on its bold and openly lustful theme.
