‘I just did it-it was hard’ rapper Chandler Matkins plays Tampa on Friday

Those choir kids are versatile. Just look at Chandler Matkins, who’s launched the Richmond rap scene into virality, all thanks to a few bars from his track, “Nothin’ To It.”

In the

TikTok

clip, the red-bearded emcee says, “Don’t ask me how I did it. I just did it—it was hard.”

Matkins’ delivery is laconic, with just a little drawl that’ll appeal to fans of Yung Gravy and even Blackalicious—and Maine rapper Ryan Peters (aka Spose) is on the bill, too.

Tickets to see Chandler Matkins play Hooch and Hive in Tampa, Florida on Saturday, Nov. 16 are still available and start at $17.
