Assasin The General returns with “REVERSE,” a grimey boom bap visual powered by Katsuro Beats and rooted in reflection, consequence, and energy. The track explores the tension between positive and negative forces—how they influence decisions, mindset, and survival.
Each verse unfolds like a rewind through real-life moments, grounded in raw street perspective and delivered with precision. The production sets a gritty tone while the visuals reinforce the message with a dark, stripped aesthetic.
“REVERSE” stands as both a statement and a reflection—balancing reality with awareness, and showing the weight behind every move.

Hip-hop (also known as rap music or simply rap) is a genre of popular music that emerged in the early 1970s alongside an associated subculture created by African-American, Afro-Caribbean and Latino communities in New York City.[1] The musical style is a synthesis of a wide range of techniques, but rapping is frequent enough that it has become a defining characteristic. Other key markers of the genre are the disc jockey (DJ), turntablism, scratching, beatboxing, and instrumental tracks. Cultural interchange has always been central to the hip-hop genre: It simultaneously borrows from its social environment while commenting on it.
The hip-hop genre and culture emerged from block parties in the Bronx.[1] DJs began expanding the instrumental breaks of popular records when they noticed how excited it would make the crowds. The extended breaks provided a platform for break dancers and rappers. These breakbeats enabled the subsequent evolution of the hip-hop style. Many of the records used were disco due to its popularity at the time. This disco-inflected music was originally known as disco rap and later described as “old-school hip-hop“.
