Water parks are big business. Many have fond childhood memories of rushing down waves on a “Shark Fin” or a “Barracuda.” In Las Vegas, a water slide is akin to an oasis, and on “Der Stuka,” ChiefDVB reminds us that summer doesn’t officially end until late September. The mystique of the track’s title is that only those who are OG Vegas will know the nostalgia “Der Stuka” invokes, and that’s just how ChiefDVB prefers it.

Las Vegas in blood and bone, ChiefDVB is far from polarizing. After opening for Twista inside a Gentlemen’s club, (it’s different out there) he gains new fans anytime he displays his music. It doesn’t matter if you’re brand new to the transient city, ChiefDVB’s rhymes will ground you in the street culture that remains the substance of the city, and also exacts its pride. Referencing “coffee & cannibus,” the emcee sticks to his own script of splitting the Dutch’s, this time with an assist from horror legend Freddy Krueger.
