Peace and power to my Mutant Emcee family! It’s your girl, Queen Meladee, and as Program Director for the 2025 relaunch of Mutant Emcee Radio, it’s both my honor and responsibility to shine light on the artists who represent the new wave of lyricism. Mutant Emcee is not brand new—we’ve been in this space for years—but this relaunch has one mission in mind: to bridge the gap between then and now. We want to connect younger aspiring lyricists with the OGs who set the bar, while also motivating the next generation to raise it even further.
Today, I’m thrilled to introduce you to an artist who embodies that exact mission: Trippy8ce.
Trippy8ce’s new single, “I Got to Win,” has officially entered daily rotation on Mutant Emcee Radio. That’s no small feat—rotation means your music has not only caught our attention but also earned a place in the soundtrack of our community. And let me tell you, this track is more than just a song—it’s a statement.
“I Got to Win” sounds like a freestyle masterpiece. It carries that raw, unfiltered energy of an off-the-top session, like he stepped to the mic, pressed record, and let the spirit of hip-hop flow through him in one take. The result? A hell of an introduction that instantly pulls you into his world.
From the very first bar, you can hear hunger in his voice. It’s the kind of hunger that reminds me of when the greats first stepped on the scene—when the message wasn’t about glitz or gimmicks but about proving yourself with pure skill and undeniable passion
Here at Mutant Emcee, we’ve always believed that hip-hop is more than music—it’s culture, history, and legacy. Trippy8ce fits seamlessly into that vision because his artistry is rooted in authenticity. His delivery feels fearless, his cadence rides the beat effortlessly, and his message is clear: he’s here to win, not just for himself, but for the culture.
As an emcee, he respects the craft. As a creator, he pushes boundaries. And as part of this new generation, he represents the energy we need to keep the artform thriving. That’s exactly why his single isn’t just in rotation on Mutant Emcee Radio—it also has the chance to spin on Melodic Playground Radio, where we highlight tracks that not only move the crowd but also move the conversation forward.
If “I Got to Win” is just the introduction, then I can only imagine what’s next for Trippy8ce. This record feels like a spark that’s about to ignite a larger fire. His sound is polished yet raw, intentional yet spontaneous, and that balance is what separates good artists from great ones.
To all my OGs in the Mutant Emcee family—pay attention. This is the type of artist who carries the torch with pride. To all the aspiring lyricists—listen closely. This is how you make an entrance.
At the end of the day, hip-hop thrives on evolution, and Trippy8ce is proof that the future is still in the hands of humans. So tap in, turn up the volume, and let “I Got to Win” remind you why we fell in love with this culture in the first place.
Welcome to the network, Trippy8ce. The world is listening.
