Cleveland veteran Lul Foureign triumphantly returns with "Super Freq".

Cleveland veteran Lul Foureign triumphantly returned with his latest musical creation Super Freq, an EP, this past week (Aug. 31). 

The Ohio rapper, known for past projects like “44 Hours in London” and “#4everfoureign”, not only intertwines soft-crooned melodies with brash, diverse flows but emits a sense of personality lateral to the direction of the mainstream landscape. Foureign is a beacon of much-needed diversity in art — recognized for early, prolific hits like “See That” and “Yelp!”, he continues to pave his way through music, business and fashion industries.

Foureign embarks on a journey through his own battles and turbulent relationships, giving the project an intimate and authentic edge that resonates with listeners deeply. The heartbeat of “Super Freq” pulsates with familial connection and self recognition. Foureign’s endeavors are not merely creative outlets; they are a homage to the support and dedication from his family and God. His sheer will and determination to win has lit a fire under him, inspiring him to move forward relentlessly, with his sacrifices in mind.

Super Freq seriously underscores his growth as an artist. At 4 tracks, spanning a short but sweet 11 minutes, Foureign teeters between soft melodies and vibrant auto-tune laced sound inviting your ears to listen for more. The project speaks of tumultuous relationships and personal conflicts, he treats each song like a storyteller, giving the listener a first-person look into the world of his struggles and solutions. With an attentiveness to versatile sounds, tracks like “Believe Me” and “Hatinggg”, both exude a different side to Lul Foureign, with the latter leaning into his affinity for slow-moving grooves like “Rose”, made for the lull of a late-night drive. Another personal favorite, “Been Like This”, allows Foureign to spread his wings, while presenting a nostalgic Soundcloud era flair, the notorious soundscape of his freshman class.

Vulnerability and persistence are clear indicators of Foureign’s commitment to continuous improvement, further solidifying his status as an artist to watch. Pursuing and maximizing his potential will be the name of the game for Lul Foureign, and I’m excited to hear and see how he makes it happen. Stream “Super Freq” on Spotify below!
