Tony Shhnow & 10kdunkin — RPs & Plan Bs

​

Atlanta staples Tony Shhnow and 10kdunkin link up for RPs & Plan Bs, a collab tape that reminds you why they’re two of the most unpredictable, consistently fresh voices in the underground. Both are known for shifting pockets and sounds without warning, and this project keeps that energy—never sitting still, always bending the lane. The opener, “On Me,” is spacey and atmospheric, setting a cool, floating tone before the tape starts swerving through textures. From there, they snap between moods like it’s nothing.

 

“Producer Gotta Draco” is one of the standouts: slow, R&B-tinged, almost hypnotic. It’s the perfect foil to something like Let It Go, a futuristic, stabby record built for speed—exactly like 10k says: “Like I’m late for something, I gotta go.” That tension between glide and sprint is a theme here. “Walking Round Like Stevie” carries a plush, R&B influence too, with both artists dropping easy quotables:

 

• “I can show you how to flex, I can’t tell you how to do it.”

• “When I cash out on that ‘Rari, I’ma park it how I wanna.”

 

Count On It drags things back to a more classic Atlanta trap/drill feel—reminiscent of the Jeezy/Gucci era. It’s the kind of beat Tony first turned heads on, and it still works.

 

“Die Bout Mine” is bass-heavy and packed with lines you screen-shot and live by:

 

• “She said I been on her mind when she dream at night / Just ’cause that n*a did you wrong don’t mean I’ma treat you right.”

• “I’ll die on my feet before I ever live on my knees.”

  There’s even this subtle island feel to it—sunny but militant.

 

They close with “NY Freestyle,” fast-paced and guitar-looped, a slick contrast to the opener. It feels like a proper exit lap: sharp, focused, clean.

 

What makes RPs & Plan Bs click isn’t just chemistry—it’s how Tony and 10k push each other without turning it into ego Olympics. It sounds like two artists forcing evolution out of each other, experimenting without losing the core. The underground needs that. This is it.
