Trinidad Jame$

"Hollywood"

BY Josiah HughesPublished Aug 25, 2014

As it turns out, Trinidad Jame$'s time with Def Jam was likely holding him back. Since getting dropped from the label, the Atlanta rapper has been grinding out new tracks.

"Hollywood," his latest single, just happens to be one of the best from his recent output. Despite some unfortunate cultural appropriation on its official artwork, the song itself offers some quick rhymes about Hollywood phonies. It's also built on a freaky, atmospheric beat from Raak full of interesting drum play and haunted vocal samples.

Listen to "Hollywood" below. Trinidad Jame$ will release a new album on September 23.
