Chicago chemistry is back in full effect.
Uncle JoNH III and Chicago emcee Raw Thesus reconnect for their third collaboration with the release of the hard-hitting new visual, “BIG SHOOTAZ,” serving as the first official single and music video from Thesus & Uncle JoNH III’s forthcoming album Cashmere Trench, arriving June 2026.
When artists lock in multiple times, there’s always a question of whether they can continue raising the bar. On “BIG SHOOTAZ,” the answer is immediate. The energy jumps out before the first verse even settles in. From the bars to the beat, everything lands exactly where it needs to. The record carries a larger-than-life feeling while still staying rooted in the gritty soul and authenticity that both artists naturally bring to the table.
Raw Thesus steps into the record with sharp lyricism and commanding presence, reminding listeners why his name continues to circulate throughout Chicago circles. Meanwhile, Uncle JoNH III does what he has built a reputation on: crafting rich, sample-driven production that feels cinematic and timeless. The groove underneath “BIG SHOOTAZ” doesn’t simply play in the background—it carries the soundtrack weight of the entire experience. Dusty textures, layered emotion, and head-nodding rhythm create a foundation that lets the record breathe while keeping pressure on every bar.
The visual itself mirrors that same energy. It’s not just another music video—it’s an extension of the sound and atmosphere surrounding Cashmere Trench. The record introduces listeners into the world Uncle JoNH III is preparing for the forthcoming release, hinting that June may bring one of his strongest bodies of work to date.
If “BIG SHOOTAZ” is the opening statement, Cashmere Trench isn’t arriving quietly.
