The rapper-producer puts pedal to the metal over four tracks

Punjabi hip-hop wizard Wazir Patar seems to have found the perfect balance between his dual careers as producer and rapper. On this whip-smart, vehicular-themed EP, he’s firmly in the driver’s seat on collaborative compositions like the swag-dripping title track, which revs listeners up for a ripping time. An engine roars to herald the anthemic “AMG” while siren sounds introduce the head-bopping, cruise-ready “A Day In Merc”. Contemplative closer “Wass Good” puts a groovy spin on the gangsta vibe. At just under 10 minutes, WZR TANK is a zippy but exhilarating ride.
