3vd Shakes the Ground With Hard-Hitting Album ‘WW3’
Cleveland’s own 3vd returns with WW3, a hard-hitting and genre-fluid body of work that solidifies his place as one of the most exciting emerging voices in the underground. The self-taught rapper, producer, and engineer has been honing his craft since the age of eight, and that early dedication shines through on this latest release—a volatile, sharply produced album that fuses raw emotion with sonic firepower.
Tracks like “Ch@lk 3m Up” and “Cutthroat!” explode with distorted 808s, searing percussion, and aggressive vocal energy that demands attention. These songs bristle with chaos and urgency, reflecting a world in flux while highlighting 3vd’s ability to shape turbulence into musical force.
But WW3 isn’t just about brute impact. It’s also deeply melodic and atmospheric, revealing a more introspective side of the artist. “Money $howers” drips with R&B-infused textures and a fluid vocal performance that underscores his knack for melody and emotional nuance. On “Fuh W/meh,” 3vd ventures into cloud rap territory, delivering a dreamlike performance over an expansive, synth-heavy soundscape. Whether he’s leaning into the aggression of trap or the softness of R&B, his control and versatility remain front and center.
Tracks like “Bruhhhhhh!!!!” and “MaN on a Mission” further emphasize his sonic range, blending rage-fueled intensity with clever arrangement and an ear for detail. Every beat is self-built, every vocal engineered in-house—3vd’s DIY ethic gives WW3 a personal, unfiltered quality that sets it apart from formulaic releases in the same space.
Dive into WW3 today and witness the rise of a multifaceted artist with something urgent to say—and the skills to say it his own way.
