Johnny Ciggs and Big Sty handle vocals, D.R.U.G.S. Beats provides production, and Mark Ingraham adds live horns. Profound79 films, Johnny Ciggs edits. The track comes from *Glass Roses*, available on vinyl and all streaming platforms through Gritty City Records. The horn section elevates "Fist City" beyond standard boom bap territory – this isn't sampled brass, it's Mark Ingraham playing live, giving the track an organic, breathing energy that separates it from loop-based production. The DIY ethos runs deep here: Ciggs raps, writes, and edits his own visual. Gritty City Records as a platform reinforces the independent spirit. *Glass Roses* as an album title suggests hardness wrapped in beauty – or beauty that cuts. For listeners tuned into hip-hop that incorporates live instrumentation without losing its edge, this one delivers.
