Johnny Storm, Noface - Egyptian Snow Review

Johnny Storm, Noface - Egyptian Snow (2024)

Came across Johnny Storm after giving Vic Spencer’s Being the Bigger Person Sucks an ear. His punchy delivery on “93 Mike N Starks” stuck out as one of the features on the project. At a time where many lists are finished and new releases get pushed into the coming year, Egyptian Snow dropped and I finally gave it a listen.

After the intro, “Word As Bond” comes in with Storm doubling down over a smooth, soulful vocal loop. The songs “We Don’t Say ‘No Cap’” and “IDMFK” pair well with the latter being a more sobering expression of the long game of his pen, and continues throughout the rest of the album’s introspected tracks.

The songs are short listens, most are single verses with a barrage of swift bars and no filler. “Word As Bond,” “IDMFK,” and “I Wrote This Song In The Rain” being some of the highlights of NoFace’s production for the album.

Favorite Tracks: Word As Bond, We Don’t Say “No Cap,” IDMFK, 360 Deal With the Government, I Wrote This Song In the Rain, and Dart Thrower
