North Chicago, IL; South Bronx, NY -- "I have spoken these things to you while I remain with you. But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you of everything I have told you." [John 14:25-26]
Return of the Max(i)
When producer Tae Lamar (IL) and emcee YP aka Young Paul (NY) get to cooking, good things are typically the result.
On November 6, 2026, the duo is dropping their latest effort, The Re-Up, a traditional maxi-single featuring the records "Messiah Flow" and "The Wretched." The release is dropping via indie imprints Polished Arrow Music and GODSKIDS, where Tae Lamar operates as an in-house producer for Polished Arrow and YP operates as an independent label for GODSKIDS.
Lamar's genre-pushing boom bap production provides the ultimate soundscape for YP to deliver his trademark East Coast lyricism. Joining the tandem with a guest spot on "Messiah Flow" is fellow Polished Arrow Music artist and Christian rap veteran MotionPlus. YP's gritty cadence, MotionPlus' blue-collar approach, and Lamar's signature beat-making make the record a standout in the CHH scene for 2026.
Beyond "Messiah Flow," "The Wretched" hits with a banging bassline and gut-punching meaning that tests the listener's readiness to bring the battle to the enemy.
Add both "Messiah Flow" and "The Wretched" from The Re-Up, when the maxi-single drops, to your playlist on your favorite music streaming service.
