“No Choice,” the third song from Mozzy’s new EP, Spiritual Conversations, opens: “You don’t wanna live like this, let it sink in.” The line is a callback to the title track from Bladadah, one of the Sacramento rapper’s handful of breakout moments: “It’s deeper than a punchline or trying to sound lyrical/You don’t wanna live like this, my life difficult.” Mozzy’s music, typified by last year’s excellent , has long meshed menace with a moral center, where the violence is unapologetic but not unexamined. Spiritual and psychological trauma seem to guide his songwriting, but they appear most frequently as subtext, or as codas on extended narratives. brings those concerns to the foreground.
