Casablanca the Gawd & Cotola Deliver Cinematic Heist With New Joint “Larceny” Ahead of Sip Tea in The Trap EP

Casablanca the Gawd & Cotola - Larceny Video

Casablanca the Gawd sets the tone for his upcoming EP Sip Tea in the Trap with the release of its explosive lead single, “Larceny.” Produced by Montreal-based visionary Cotola, the track delivers gritty lyricism over a hauntingly cinematic beat, immediately immersing listeners into the raw atmosphere of Casablanca’s world.

“Larceny” isn’t just a song, it’s a statement. Clocking in with head-nodding intensity and unapologetic storytelling, Casablanca demonstrates why he’s one of the most authentic voices rising from the underground today. His cadence is sharp, his imagery vivid, and his presence commanding.

The collaboration with Cotola, whose resume includes critically acclaimed work across Canada and the U.S.—brings a distinct edge to the track. Cotola’s layered, film-scoreworthy production sets the perfect backdrop for Casablanca’s lyrical precision, evoking a soundscape that feels more like a cinematic heist than a traditional hip-hop single.

“Sip Tea in the Trap” is about grown man perspective, it’s for those who’ve lived through it and came out sharper. ‘Larceny’ is the opening chapter,” says Casablanca.

His growing presence in the underground scene follows the success of his recent single “Readings on the Wall,” featuring Che Noir and produced by V Don. The track was recognized as a “certified Rosenberg banger” on Hot 97’s Real Late HERE (1:02:19) and spotlighted in VIBE’s New Music Friday roundup alongside heavyweights like Key Glock, Kid Cudi, and Playboi Carti—a testament to Casablanca’s ability to stand out among mainstream and indie artists alike.

The music video for “Larceny” debuts tonight at 6 PM EST, with direction by WeShootFilms, the team behind the acclaimed “Loosie” visual. The full Sip Tea in the Trap EP drops August 22, 2025, with limited CD and vinyl pre-orders opening the same month.
