Album Review: RPxSB – ‘CREATURES (Acts I-III)’

Roddy Picante and Stay-Bizzy, better known as RPxSB, recently released an ambitious three-part album, CREATURES (Acts I-III). Here’s what listeners can expect from this heavy-hitting record.

RPxSB Go All in on CREATURES

San Francisco hip hop duo Roddy Picante and Stay-Busy go above and beyond on their latest record, CREATURES. While most acts release one record, which is an undertaking in and of itself, this latest release is a triple album.

It is often said that you can never have too much of a good thing. And certainly, that logic applies here. All three parts of this release are chock-full of lyrical prowess with Jazz-inspired beats as the backdrop.

CREATURES is a Whole Vibe

CREATURES hits on all facets of the human condition. Roddy Picante and Stay-Bizzy showcase their versatility on each of the triple album’s 25 total tracks. The duo can go from heavy and gut-wrenching lyrics to humorous rhymes full of pop culture references – and they do both seamlessly.

In addition to this, there’s something to be said about what each individual artist brings to the project as a whole. Certainly, Roddy Picante and Stay-Bizzy are forces on their own. But there’s something about how they work together and feed off of one another that takes this latest project to the next level.

RPxSB Take Listeners on a Complete Journey

With such an extensive offering of 25 tracks, it can be difficult to sum up this record from its individual parts. But as a collective, this triple album covers all bases and hits on all cylinders.

It isn’t a stretch to say that RPxSB hit on every element of the human experience in these 25 tracks. Whether it’s delving deep into the lowest of lows or partying it up during a night out, Roddy Picante and Stay-Bizzy touch on it all.

If nothing else, listening to this album in its entirety will take listeners on a complete, full-circle journey that they won’t soon forget. This duo of childhood friends has honed their craft for years – and that chemistry is evident in every single track.

Meanwhile, they live their messages of struggle, loss, and perseverance in their tracks. And that authenticity comes through in every lyric and every beat. So, as a whole, CREATURES isn’t just a solid record; it’s an experience listeners won’t want to miss.
