Boston’s Cakeswagg looms large but never gets lost in the braggadocio of lesser rappers. There’s a sense of humor and true-to-life details in her lyrical storytelling that keep the drama grounded in human-sized, relatable proportions. The flow in our highlighted track “Big Plays” is pointed, arch, tense, and relentless uptempo. The message to the listener: keep up with Cakeswagg or get left behind.
