Black Histori Project Makes XXL Best Mixtapes of 2014 List
via XXL
CyHi The Prynce, Black Hystori Project
GOOD Music’s CyHi The Prynce boasts that he’s “Nas with a ‘Pac flow” on Black Hystori Project. With BHP, CyHi delivers a lesson in Black history, shouting out some of his favorite figures with song titles such as “Huey,” “Mandela” and “Coretta.” Lush production and complex, name-drop-filled lyrics are at a premium here, as CyHi references famous writers, artists, actors, musicians, Civil Rights leaders, and more throughout. “I write my graffiti in Swahili/I don’t follow, I’m not Phoebe/Fuck diabetes, I’ma die chic/That’s the reason I’m dressed in this dashiki/Fly as Tuskegee, riding to my CD,” he spits over a fast-paced guitar and piano-laced beat by Grizzly on “Basquiat.”
CyHi’s story-telling ability cannot be overlooked, as he weaves socially conscious tales into nearly every record on BHP. Rap audiences knew that CyHi had this type of ability from hearing him on GOOD Music’s Cruel Summer compilation, but a full-length effort raises the bar even higher. The 18-track body of work should remain in rotation during the month of February for years to come. —ES

CyHi The Prynce - "Coretta" Produced by Tec Beatz
via Complex Magazine
Later this month, G.O.O.D. Music's own CyHi The Prynce will be releasing his new mixtape Black History Project. The Stone Mountain native shares a record off that project today in "Coretta." Channeling the cover art of Martin Luther King, Jr. and his wife Coretta Scott, the song wonderfully displays a softer side to CyHi, where he trades in his razor sharp bars for warm lyricism above love and affection. "My parents still together, so I really know what love is/No baby mama but I love kids/If treating you with respect is a crime/Then I'll do any amount of time that the judge gives," CyHi raps with sincerity. Tec Beatz provides the smooth production here, which brings the theme full circle.
CyHi's Black History Project will be released February 24 on DatPiff. The project will be executive produced by Kanye West.
