The West Coast is undoubtedly having a musical moment in 2021 due to the renewing energy of artists breaking through into the limelight, such as Los Angeles-based rapper DaColdSteppa.

Channeling the intensity of his sub-zero flows, DaColdSteppa unleashes his debut six-track Cold Soul EP featuring guest verses from up-and-coming L.A. rappers Speedyyy and Donny Loc.

After building a buzz with his bold lead single “I Been That,” Cold Soul firmly cements DaColdSteppa’s foundation while dually elevating his stock amongst his rap peers with slaps such as “We Ain’t The Same” and “Winning” soundtracking his ascent.

DaColdSteppa also notably links with trending producer Rappa, who is known for working with numerous top-tier L.A. artists including 03 Greedo, throughout the majority of the EP, sharpening his lyrical ginsu on each of the crisp sub-knocking beats. 

The highlighted track from their collective lock-in, “Nightmares” has quickly become one of DaColdSteppa’s top-streamed songs on Spotify and represents both the organic chemistry he and Rappa cultivated, as well as the undeniable appeal of the EP as a whole.

The release of the new EP follows DaColdSteppa’s prolific 2021 singles-run, which has spawned several fan-favorite bangers for DaColdest Records CEO, including his collaborative “Bands On The Floor” visual with Speedyyy and vibey “College Dropout” banger.
