Cheflodeezy Releases First Single of 2020, 'Koockin & Juggin'

MIAMI, May 1, 2020 (Newswire.com) - ​Miami, like most cities, has been grappling with the effects of the coronavirus. The usually teeming city, known for its vibrance and energy, has ground to a halt in an effort to slow the spread of the virus via social distancing measures. Rapper Cheflodeezy is hoping for the return of life to his beloved city and is choosing to let the creative juices flow during a difficult time for the city, choosing to release his newest single “Koockin & Juggin”. The high-energy, trap-infused single is Deezy’s first of the year, with a continuous stream of releases planned as the year progresses.

The single, written and performed by Deezy is semi-autobiographical and chronicles some of Deezy’s favorite pastimes, as well as laying out some of Miami’s unspoken street code. The single is assisted with a beat production from producer Ace Bankz. The single is broadly available on May 1, 2020.

As an introduction to his sound and style, Koockin & Juggin is an alternative hip hop anthem with a classic darkness to it that conjures up memories of the most confident and striking acts from way back when. In this case, there's a contemporary freshness to the trap beat, the haunting rise of the piano, and the unforgiving determination and grit in the vocal tone.
