Mz Goes BMT – A Bar-for-Bar Beatdown with Cabra on the Mic

Back-to-back like it’s schoolyard business

I don’t know what you’re doing when you press play on a new rap track. Maybe you’re half-checking emails, maybe you’re staring at your ceiling waiting for some God-tier beat to land and save your day. But I hit play on BMT and immediately got that old-school pulse in the chest. No dramatic intro, no mood-setting hook, just two voices cracking knuckles. They showed up with bars loaded and rhythm in their bones. They came to spit. And it shows.

You hear it and you’re there – London steps, late hours, two friends passing the mic like Pokémon cards, bouncing cadence and wordplay like it’s muscle memory. Cabra joins in on his first track with ES6 Collective, the indie label that’s been home base for Mz since day one. And frankly, it feels not much like a debut, but more like a reunion.

And yeah, I’ve written about Mz before. He’s got that rare mix of brains and beat sense, the kind of artist who can be introspective without sounding like he’s pitching a therapy app. But BMT? This one’s just fire for the sake of fire. Like they say – there’s no hooks or filler, it’s just a burning mic warfare.

Mz and Cabra Lock In on “BMT” – No Space Left Between Bars

Mz and Cabra move through verses like they’re wired to the same circuit, each line hits because the next one knows where to land. It’s like watching two chefs cook the same dish in the same pan without burning the place down. They’ve got rhythm that moves like an underground train – tight, relentless, alive.

And that Boom Bap base? Smooth as butter on a burnt toast morning. It nods to tradition but doesn’t get stuck on it.

I grew up listening to that stuff. The tracks that felt like cipher nights and brick walls, cheap headphones and shared roll-ups. BMT taps into that, and I’m just pretending it’s 1996 again. A sharp modern twist, coated in grime-adjacent punchlines and just enough swagger to keep the elbows wide and the head nodding. I just love it!

The beat stays steady in the pocket – clean, sharp, and right where it needs to be while the verses do their work. Lets the lyrics breathe. Lets the timing do the talking. And damn, that timing, tight enough to cut glass.

ES6 – The Place They Learned to Speak Loud

This track is a statement, sure. But it’s also a bookmark in a bigger story. Because Mz’s voice lands firmer now – he knows exactly where to put the weight. His last joint, Fade Away, turned heads, and now he’s circling back with a childhood friend to remind us where it all started. This is the kind of sound that raised them – and it still fits. And when roots show up in rap, you feel it.

There’s something kind of rare in seeing two artists make music that isn’t straining for a message. BMT is them in their element- hunger, bars, and brotherhood. And maybe that’s what makes ES6 more than a vanity tag. It’s a campfire for the right kind of heat, a place where rising talent doesn’t get chewed up by A&R meetings or TikTok trends.
