Class of 95

Album ∙ Hip-Hop/Rap ∙ 2024

DOM KENNEDY has long been an essential architect of LA’s modern rap scene, helping the city’s rising stars herald citywide subgenres like jerk and nervous music. Here, KENNEDY introduces a side that is heavy on bars and sonically restless, occupying many lanes at once and, as such, revealing himself to be a generational jack of all trades. He packs 19 songs into the project, making up for the three-year gap between Class of 95 and its predecessor, From the Westside with Love Three. From the first bass hits and scratched sample of opener “Rich Kids,” KENNEDY makes his intentions clear, picking up his mission without missing a beat. He pays tribute to his hometown and outlines the personal stakes he associates with it. He spits, “I'm from the same city where them boys gettin' taxed/I'm from the same city where they started bangin' that, dope slangin' that.” Of course, this wouldn’t be a DOM KENNEDY song without a one-liner that separates him from the pack: “But to me, it's more than that/Just doin' like Nike, that mean to the max.”
