Styles P can still rap his muthaf**king ass off.
If you look up the definition of a slept-on rapper, Styles P’s name should appear under everything but antonyms. For more than 30 years, he has delivered the best verses in hip-hop without changing who he is or softening the gritty approach that made him a legend. Now, The Ghost is back with a new single called “Set Of P’s.”
The track borrows from the cold-ass production behind Fat Joe and Pusha T’s “Set of Keys,” giving Styles a hard-hitting backdrop that fits him perfectly.
His bars are competitive. He talks about fighting bears, being prepared for war, and maintaining his grip on the streets. The punchlines land heavily, his flow remains unmistakable, and that cool aggression still sounds just as convincing as it did decades ago.
“Set Of P’s” arrives as Styles prepares to release the first volume of Ghost of the Past, Present, and Future, a planned three-part conclusion to his solo-album run. Based on this track, it looks like he has a few more asses to whoop.
Quincy is the creator of Ratings Game Music. He loves writing about music, taking long walks on beaches, and spaghetti that fights him back.

I think Styles P is proving that music is still relevant. So rappers you need to take notes on how to rap.
