Between Bossman, S.L.A.S.H., and G-Mane, I’ve lost count of how many rising Huntsville artists there are who can be billed as the city’s secret weapon, but PT Prime Time is yet another. It’s hard to brand him as a rapper-producer or a producer-rapper because he wears both hats so well. His group Untamed Ent. is a trio (formerly a duo) dedicated to big beats and not smiling. The 6 Day Equation will be their third mixtape and “Million Dollar” is the first leak.

Don’t let the brief Auto-Tune or unabashed use of the word swag fool you; Untamed are a distinct brand of block-ready Southern rap. PT, AC Burna, and JB (abbreviate much?) flow better than most rappers who would use the words “Million dollar swag.” They forgo the space rap usually associated with Huntsville and rhyme over hi-hats and steel drums. It’s a clean, restrained beat that doesn’t wear you out after four and a half minutes, unlike its trap rap cousins. I challenge anyone to listen to Ferrari Boyz without needing Tylenol. “Million Dollar” suits beating down snitches as well as driving to the dermatologist.
