City Of Angels is the first (debut) album by Nepalese rapper Slim Boss. It is held to release October 25, 2022. The album features guest appearances from Nasty/Donjean, Nawaj Ans ri, Omg Spark, Grizzle, VSX and 23 KPC. It also features production from record producers such as JXXDED, Beatsbyanil, PRXDA, Breeze, B. Beats, Zziminar, Easy on the beat, Thumpa, Cobra, and Misery.  The album was supported by one single: “Taaniraako Akkha”.

Gandaki Pradesh rapper’s technical skill and stylistic brilliance make it worth your time. Slim Boss is a reliably astute emcee — nimble at rapping and structurally fluid but carrying enough bark to devour listeners with tales of money moves, childhood mischief, and toxic relationship. In 2020’s Sodh Haamro Baarey, the Gandaki Pradesh rapper went from nothing to trending at #10 in the Youtube music charts for NEPAL. Songs like “Bishram” and “i don’t trust nobody” showed off dexterity, and pristine songwriting, while “flex like a boss” brings an attitude fit for a monarch. On City Of Angels, his debut album released in 2020, he sticks with an ever-working formula with similar success. 

As a rapper, Slim Boss isn’t as confrontationally mutable as other Nepal stalwarts. If Nasty/Donjean wild statements and outfits allow people of every identity to see themselves in him, Slim is a single-minded, ultra-focused careerist. He’s observant, lean, and emotionally acute, with a crystalline bold voice that’s one of the best of this generation. That intensity comes through in every song. He’s made of steel.  

In August 2020, Slim Boss revealed plans to release his debut album before the end of 2020, but it was delayed until 2022. The album’s artwork and release date were revealed in June 2022, which was made by nycnepalilifestyle© and the company also helped and motivated him throughout the process of making an album, and the same company is responsible for making all the official videos of Slim Boss. Slim Boss took Instagram Live and explained the album’s title. The album is divided into 2 parts, the first 6 songs are for hardcore hip-hop listeners, and the last five songs can be related by anybody. Inkar jugjali helped a lot in making the script and concept for the videos for the album, which will be released in the order of the upcoming days. We can also hear Rapper Slim Boss talking about money moves in his upcoming album, and his motto is to inspire all youngsters to earn money and be dependent.
