Nashville hip-hop artist and former MTSU student De’Andre Davis, or The Real 2Four, teamed up with Murfreesboro’s Jim Giordano, better known as DJ Majestic, to release Intergalactic, their collaborative four-song EDM-based EP that blurs the lines between electronic, house, hip-hop and trap-inspired genres.

Backed by Juggernaut 24 Entertainment, 2Four’s latest project combines extensive buildups and heavy dubstep-influenced bass lines to produce the kind of infectious elements that were missing from his debut EP. While his lyric style remains the same, the electronica component gives the album a fresh spin on hip-hop, with 2Four’s vibrant verses gliding smoothly over DJ Majestic’s seamless beats that waver between subtle wobbles and resounding, rhythmic frequencies.

On “Intergalactic,” the club-ready title track, 2Four sings about “getting in my spaceship” for an “outer space trip” to Mars over spacey, yet straightforward loops. Tracks “Lockdown” and “Way Too Fly” feature Charlie Rose, but the latter sounds more like a verse instead of a fully developed track.

Intergalactic is well-produced, but it certainly isn’t a groundbreaking record. It is, however, hype club music emphasized with catchy lyrics and is suitable for both personal listening or background music at a party. 2Four clearly has a vision for his career and proves himself a prominent up-and-coming figure in “Cashville’s” growing hip-hop scene.
