When she appeared on Conway The Machine’s “Crack In The Ninety’s” from his From King To A GOD Deluxe project, it served for many as a formal introduction to the lyrical dynamo and multi-faceted artist known as 7xvethegenius. The intrigue was furthered when Conway brought her out to perform on Tidal’s exclusive Griselda Holiday Concert.
Born in Buffalo, NY’s Eastside (she also has a deep connection with Atlanta’s music scene, as she spent most of her young adult life in the area before relocating to Buffalo in 2018) 7xve is now an integral component of Conway’s Drumwork Records imprint; and her buzz only continues to intensify. Over the last year, 7xve has released a well-received EP (Self 7Xve 2), linked up with frequent collaborator Che Noir for “Ladies Brunch” (which also featured Armani Caesar) and “Veracruz” from Che’s recently released Noir Or Never, released an “On The Radar” Freestyle Single and linked with her Drumwork squad for standout performances on Conway & Jae Skeese’s Pain Provided Profit (“Food”) and most recently the title track for Conway’s Won’t He Do It album.
Now that the rising emcee has your attention, and before she releases her Drumwork Records debut this summer, 7xvethegenius joins forces with DJ Green Lantern and puts her talents as an artist and storyteller on full-display with their forthcoming collaborative drop The Genius Tape.
Produced in its entirety by DJ Green Lantern, The Genius Tape, will be released on 6-9-23 and features appearances from Conway The Machine, Rome Streetz, Che Noir, AA Rashid & TF.
Today, in addition to announcing their new project, the duo released the project’s first single, “Brainstorming,” which features Conway The Machine. “Brainstorming” is now available at all DSP’s.
“Brainstorming” is literally a collective of our thoughts. I told Con I just wanted to float on this record and calmly pop our shit in an elegant way” 7xvethegenius declares. “The chemistry we have together is easy and effortless. After how crazy the responses to “Won’t He Do It’ were, I thought it was only right we continue to set the tone with this record.”
