Intro

This is the sound of victory in high definition. HS87 (Hits Since '87) delivers a sonic experience that feels like a victory lap through a metropolis of neon and glass. The production is impeccably clean, characterized by the kind of massive, stadium-ready synths and razor-sharp 808s that you'd expect from a collective led by Hit-Boy. It is music that demands to be played on a high-end sound system where the low end can breathe.

What sets this collective apart is the seamless integration of different vocal textures - from the high-energy flows of Audio Push to the smooth, R&B-inflected melodies of K. Roosevelt. It is a 'posse cut' mentality refined into a cohesive brand. The tracks often lean into a 'luxury rap' aesthetic, focusing on the textures of success, high-end production, and the relentless pursuit of the next hit.

Start with 'All I've Ever Dreamed Of' to hear the collective at their most ambitious. It serves as a perfect showcase of how they can bridge the gap between underground grit and radio-ready polish, making it an essential listen for anyone who appreciates the intersection of technical production and mainstream appeal.
