“While the loss of Henny B is tragic, I’m sure somewhere she’s proud of her friends and how they have rebounded and started this new chapter in their lives. BIG $ILKY Vol. 1 is a fitting tribute to a fallen friend, but it’s also a statement that you need to take notice of these women moving forward, because they are coming for your neck.”

“Born out of the Rapperchicks crew, Big $ILKY consists of MCs Psalm One and Angel Davanport. The duo’s inaugural release laces ruminative reflections on relationships with boisterous barbs.”
BANDCAMP BEST HIP HOP, APRIL 2020: WRITTEN BY PHILLIP MLYNAR
“I honestly think that the best thing about this (“SEEDS” BY TIME FEAT. PSALM ONE AND MICK JENKINS) song is the second verse from Psalm One. She was gettin’ fuckin’ busy on this track. I think it’s on par with her verse on The Morning by the CunninLynguists, if not better. She annihilated this shit. Everything about her verse, from the writing, to her delivery and flow… It was all perfect.”
Focus hip hop, writer OG NICK MARSH
Veteran MC Psalm One’s FLIGHT OF THE WIG is a spiky rap album that sets sharp commentary on identity politics over sonorous, bass-centric beats. She connects club dancers to religious figures (“Twerking4Feminists”), deals with Trump-era tumult (“WWIV”), and navigates fleeting social media fame (“Ain’t 2 Famous”).
