The EP opens with “Car Chase,” a dynamic fusion of jazzy vibes and hip-hop elements. The track’s infectious bass line practically demands head-nodding, while Ramon’s rap delivery flows smoothly over the jazz-influenced instrumentation.
“Backseat” shifts gears into more serious territory, featuring an anthemic backdrop that amplifies Ramon’s more aggressive rap delivery. The intensity here packs a real punch, demonstrating his ability to switch up styles effectively.

“Mitch Green” stands out with its minimalist musical arrangement, wisely stepping back to let Ramon’s wordplay take center stage. The track is a masterclass in battle rap meets luxury rap, filled with sharp pop culture references and clever punchlines. His confident flow blends together everything from vintage gaming to wrestling references, creating a perfect blend of nostalgia and modern braggadocio. The stripped-back production serves the lyrics perfectly, letting each witty line land with maximum impact.
The EP closes with “Pipe Dream,” a fitting finale that brings together retro-tinged melodies with intense rap verses. This combination of melodic touches and hard-hitting lyrics creates a satisfying conclusion to the project.
