RodThaGreat Explores Humanity vs Technology on New Single “Dilemma”

Single

New York City artist RodThaGreat returns with a bold and thought-provoking new single, “Dilemma,” releasing December 9, 2025, under his independent label ThaGreatCreations LLC. Known for blending intellect with emotion, RodThaGreat uses this track to explore the growing tension between humans and the technology they create. Produced by Zvucitop, with engineering by Wavyvic and mastering from Panpsyche, “Dilemma” delivers a dark, futuristic soundscape that mirrors its deeper message about artificial intelligence and human divinity.

The inspiration behind “Dilemma” stems from RodThaGreat’s belief that humans are the original computers—organic, divine, and capable of creating intelligence that may one day surpass and threaten its creators. The song leans into this concept with eerie electronic textures and melodic rap flows, creating a sonic battle between man and machine. One of the track’s most unique elements is its unconventional sound design, including background tones that resemble a piano but are actually RodThaGreat’s own manipulated vocals, adding an unsettling yet captivating layer to the record.

“Dilemma” holds special significance for the artist, as it was the first song created for his upcoming album and also the most challenging, undergoing multiple revisions since its original conception in 2024. Standout lines like “I got certain powers yeah but I control the weather” reinforce the theme of human superiority and self-awareness. With past accolades including over 1 million Spotify streams on his song “Birthdays” and a #25 spot on the iTunes Rap Albums chart for his debut album, RodThaGreat continues to evolve creatively. Fans can also expect live shows at the top of the new year, signaling an exciting next chapter for the rising NYC artist.

WestsideTony x Chicken P Connect & Drop F.H.Y.F. Video

Videos

WestSideTony is a street-focused rap artist from the west side of Cleveland, Ohio, known for raw storytelling, emotional grit, and a relentless hustler’s mentality. Raised with enough to survive but never enough to feel secure, his life has been shaped more by betrayal than loyalty, more hate than love, and more lessons than handouts. His music reflects that duality — pain and power, scars and strategy, hunger and discipline. Inspired by the wolf, he moves with or without a pack, driven by resilience, self-respect, and the belief that everything he has, he earned on his own

“F*ck How You Feel” is a high-energy collaboration between WestSideTony and Chicken P, created and filmed in Cleveland with a level of urgency that reflects the song’s message. The pair recorded the track and shot the video in just 2–3 hours, capturing the raw momentum behind the record.

The song is rooted in Tony’s reality — losing people faster than he gains them, pushing toward bigger goals despite betrayals, and staying locked in on his mission even when others fall away. His opening line, “The only thing I’m afraid of is being broke,” sets the tone for the hunger and drive that define the record.

For Tony, the collaboration holds personal meaning as well. He’s been a supporter of Chicken P since the early “Little Chicken” era around 2020, making this link-up both a moment of respect and a milestone in his journey.

“F*ck How You Feel” embodies Tony’s mindset: stay focused, stay hungry, and keep chasing everything you’re destined for — no matter who switches up along the way.
