By: GroovNuke Supa Bwe returns with a fresh, new EP. Chicago rising star Supa Bwe is here with his creative, yet thoughtful 7-track EP "Just Say Thank You". Say thank you for the effort put forth right here from Bwe. Supa Bwe is a genre-defying DIY artist and producer who grew up on the 800 block of Chicago Ave and Lockwood before relocating to the more suburban neighborhood of Oak Park. Best known for tracks like “Up Right Now” ft. Xavier Omär and “Fool Wit It Freestyle” ft. Chance The Rapper, Supa Bwe has “worked himself into an enviable spot in the Chicago hip-hop scene—insofar as it's possible to tell who'll break out next, he's at the head of the line.” “His style has been very influential,” says Andrew Barber, a Chicago music industry veteran and founder of popular blog Fake Shore Drive. “He should be getting more credit for what he brings to the game, as far as his delivery, how he kind of yell-sings on the track. I think a lot of artists are doing that now, and he was the first I heard using that style.” After spending several years honing his skills within Chicago’s underground and collaborating with a who’s who of the city’s hip-hop elite, including Twista, Mick Jenkins, Saba, NoName, Taylor Bennett and many more, it wasn’t until the December 2017 release of Supa Bwe’s debut album, Finally Dead, that his popularity began to explode outside of the city.
His single, “I Hate Being Alive,” received a Cole Bennett-directed music video and the album earned praise from mainstream press like Complex, Hypebeast, XXL, and Chicago’s Fox 32. In 2018, Supa Bwe made serious noise when his disbanded group, Hurt Everybody, reunited for a concert hosted by prominent tastemakers Lyrical Lemonade. Make sure to get in tune with Supa Bwe's new EP. Chance the Rapper and Rexx Life Raj made an appearance, along with Duffle Bag Buru. Bwe has been rocking for a long time now things are starting to stick. For years on running, Bwe has been crafting at his groundwork.
