As one of northern California’s most-watched and strongest up-and-coming young artists, Haiti Babii has been on a tear in recent months, having sent his momentum surging with the release of regional hits like “Period.” Now, capitalizing on his current pace and fast-rising position, the Stockton representative is serving up a brand new length project, Warrior.

Made up of nine tracks, Haiti Babii’s Warrior project was created with the aim of redefining the sound of his coast and breathing life into a new sonic signature for the West. Concerning features, ALLBLACK, Philthy Rich, D-Lo and DaBoii were sought out for collaborations; according to Haiti Babii, this produced a “wonderful combination” since he was “born in Oakland” but “raised in Stockton.” To support the project, Haiti Babii also released its Philthy Rich-assisted record “Without You” as its lead single.

“Keep it original and authentic — show love,” Haiti Babii told us when asked about the intentions and motivations behind Warrior. “That’s the whole point of me stepping into this game: to show as much love and leave a beautiful legacy behind … Every second is a new sound in my songs, so every time you go back to listen to my music, you find something new — it never gets tiring, it never gets boring.”

You can stream Haiti Babii‘s new Warrior project below, and stay tuned for much more from the Stockton rapper.
