Akron rapper Peoplez330 makes a strong statement with his debut album Grace First, a 13-track release packed with lyric-driven storytelling.

Akron, Ohio rapper Peoplez330 steps onto the scene with Grace First, a 13-track album that mixes sharp lyricism with soulful backdrops. He approaches the project with a confident, punchline-heavy style that draws from old-school hip-hop traditions while keeping the focus on lived experience.

The album opens with “Blue Fanta,” where Peoplez330 delivers gritty bars over a warm, soulful beat reminiscent of early-2000s East Coast production. Tracks like “Drift Away” follow with smoother grooves, creating a contrast between relaxed instrumentals and focused lyricism. Guest features include Mz. Pursley, Faye Love Music, Churchy Lee, and Mommy G, each adding their own perspective without overshadowing the main voice.

“Ray Bar Tints” stands out for its direct talk about staying focused and trusting the process, while “No Panik” flips the energy with a club-ready beat and more aggressive delivery. “Prototype” closes on a narrative note, exploring the story of a woman navigating her own struggles, showing another side of the rapper’s writing.

With three bonus tracks rounding out the set, Grace First presents Peoplez330 as a lyric-driven artist with a clear point of view. The album leans on storytelling, personal insight, and production that nods to hip-hop’s classic era while keeping his own identity intact.
