Music moves fast nowadays, and first impressions are critical for an artist to hold attention. You can hear the intention in DMV rapper TyFontaine’s voice the moment he enters the track on his new single, “Raw Dawg Dippin.” While delivering rhymes with a purpose, he doesn’t appear to be rushed - the high-velocity cadence he employs feels indicative of his mentality and personality, where he is sure to waste no time or breath in his flashy verses. TyFontaine’s voice’s defining quality is its dexterity, allowing him to add flare and magnetism to his matter-of-fact rapping. The production on the track adds to this dynamism, adding an extra punch to every bar and a round of airiness when needed. “Raw Dawg Dippin” rides high throughout, turning heads and rocking stereos wherever it finds itself. 

Fans can always count on TyFontaine to deliver new, fresh raps consistently, and 2024 has been no different. In this calendar year, he has released 3 LPs along with multiple deluxe releases, and has no plans on slowing down. “Raw Dawg Dippin” is part of another upcoming project from TyFontaine, Ascension ii, set to arrive later this month. Act 1 of the album was released this past July, but the additional incoming songs only supplement the music that preceded it. From his start on the Internet Money imprint to his collaborations with Lil Tecca, Trippie Redd, Joony, and Cochise, TyFontaine has always found a way to stand out. There’s no reason to believe that what he has coming next won’t be more of the same.
