AUDIO: Mocity & PaperStacks – “Look At My Roof”
Two of Milwaukee’s most reliable names in hip hop just made it official on wax. Mocity and PaperStacks — both fixtures in the city’s rap ecosystem for years — have teamed up for “Look At My Roof,” a new single featuring Phif that dropped today.
Clocking in at a lean two minutes and forty seconds, “Look At My Roof” rides a 93 BPM groove that sits comfortably in that sweet spot between laid-back and menacing. The production is polished but not overcooked, giving both Mocity and PaperStacks plenty of room to flex while Phif adds another dimension to the track. It’s the kind of record that bumps on a slow cruise down North Avenue with the windows cracked — dark enough in mood to keep you locked in, danceable enough to keep your head moving.
For anyone who’s been paying attention, this collaboration feels like it was only a matter of time. Mocity has been making moves across Milwaukee stages, including appearances at the Cactus Club and WMSE’s Local Live sessions at Anodyne. PaperStacks, meanwhile, has been building something bigger than just a discography — his “Good Vibes Only” concert series has become a cornerstone event for Milwaukee’s hip-hop and R&B community, earning coverage from the Shepherd Express and cementing his reputation as both an artist and a scene-builder.
Together, they’ve delivered a track that sounds like two artists who know exactly what they’re doing and aren’t in a rush to prove it. “Look At My Roof” is confident, measured, and hits harder than its runtime suggests.
