aM.Ess is not chasing shortcuts. On his new single “Visions,” the Alamogordo native trades in flash for substance, laying down verses that feel lived-in. His delivery is calculated, his tone equal parts reflective and commanding. Da Kid Emm’s feature adds balance, giving the record a contrast that keeps listeners locked in. With Finesse on production, the beat wraps both artists in layers of texture, highlighting their words instead of drowning them out. It is the kind of single that reminds you hip-hop still values storytelling, still values craft.
