Upcoming Texas rapper Mike Dimes shows listeners he is a bright part of hip hop’s future on his project IN DIMES WE TRUST. Through just half an hour of running time, Mike shows what makes him special as he embodies the best of southern hip hop and trap music. He has a commanding voice, and fierce delivery, and his ability to ride over fast-paced intense instrumentals is a feat no one in the mainstream can quite match. While he is far from mastery, his relentless and high energy makes all 12 tracks on this project enjoyable. What Dimes is doing respects the roots of hip hop culture, but adds much-needed stylistic twists to separate the 21-year-old from the rest of the competition. If you’re a fan of southern hip hop or trap music, IN DIMES WE TRUST is the project for you.
