Chopped cheese is a New York institution. The bodega sandwich - chopped beef, melted cheese, all on a hero roll — belongs to the city's DNA, especially in Harlem and the Bronx. DJ Skizz takes that as an album title, and that's a smart move. No abstract concept arc, just something concrete, local, everyday. Skizz has been one of the most reliable underground producers of the last decade - his work within the Slice of Spice orbit and with various New York MCs has shaped a recognizable sound: dusty, warm, always with one foot in the classic boom bap tradition. Eight tracks as a producer album leave many possibilities open. Without detailed feature information in the short description, focus stays on Skizz's sonic signature. That he deliberately places the title on a bodega sandwich rather than a grand concept says something about his approach: the everyday life of the city is the actual foundation, not some inflated album narrative.
