FSD Feature: 30 Best Chicago Projects Of 2014

Posted on December 18, 2014 by FSD Staff

17. Kit – Lownt God Rising

Kit first hit our radar last summer with his extraterrestrial New Wavey, and came back twice as hard — and twice as spaced out — on 2014’s Lownt God Rising. Never mind the title, it’s no surprise as to why Kit’s status is quickly rising amongst the Chicago and national scene. Having joined forces with Supreme Cuts, Lownt God Rising, is one of the most unique releases of 2014 — and the most consistent.

The project is a healthy mix of eerie slow rollers, and full-fledged ratchet riot-inciters like “Steve Kerr.” Well planned and well executed.

    One of the best most accurate and seemingly unbiased lists FSD has ever posted. Congrats to all the artists recognized big and small.

      Surprised that Katie Got Bandz didn’t get nominated. I was surprised that Common made it. Truthfully, I felt like the project capitalized and pandered to his Chicago roots that he hasn’t acknowledged in a long time. Although I am sure some would argue that the gesture is to pass the torch, something about it seemed false and it is far deeper than the fact of Common not being a “drill” rapper. Plus anytime he talks about sex gives me pause.

    Remember folks it’s a Midwest blog. Gibbs is from Gary that’s not far from the Chi. And as for projects left off the list. Maybe FSD needs an honorable mentions post

      yeah we all know FSD is a midwest blog but don’t title the post best “chicago” projects if you’re gonna include outside of chicago projects. it’s a bit misleading. you don’t open a chinese restaurant and sell pizza. honorable mentions post would be nice but ceito is above that. the positive energy, no pun intended, and stylistic laid back sounds were one step ahead of the major label artists like j. cole and kendrick right now.

      FSD is a Chicago blog. They have a poor representation of the Midwest.
