Tyler Boy Sammy Explores Loss on “Lake way Harbour”

On December 18, 2025, Tyler Boy Sammy released Lake way Harbour, a seven-track EP that feels like a personal archive. Rooted in hip-hop but shaped by lived experience, the project moves deliberately through pain, memory, and emotional survival, offering a clear snapshot of where the rapper stands at this moment in his life.

The EP’s title track, “Lake way Harbour,” immediately sets the tone. Subtle guitar lines ease the listener in before the beat gradually builds, creating a sense of quiet tension. Tyler Boy Sammy’s delivery follows that same slow burn. “All I ever felt was pain my whole life / If you don’t love me, don’t hurt my feelings,” he raps, framing the project around vulnerability. The track functions as an emotional entry point, signaling that this is a story driven by reflection.

From there, Lake way Harbour moves through a series of moments that balance intensity with emotional control. Tracks like “Murder on My Mind” lean into darker psychological spaces, while others focus on introspection and personal loss. The emotional center of the EP, however, arrives with “Calling Me Home.” The song begins melodically before the beat drops, allowing space for grief to surface without interruption. It addresses the loss of Tyler Boy Sammy’s mother, who passed away from COVID-19, and stands out as the most intimate moment on the record.

“I love you,” he repeats throughout the song, the simplicity of the phrase carrying more weight with each return. Later, he admits, “Some days telling me I gotta let you go, I don’t know what to do without you,” capturing the unresolved nature of grief. The track lingers, allowing repetition and melody to do the work words alone cannot.

Across all seven tracks, Tyler Boy Sammy remains firmly grounded in hip-hop, composing and rapping with clarity and intent. The EP feels measured and reflective, shaped by real experiences. It’s a project built on honesty that documents pain.

In that sense, Lake way Harbour reads as both a personal reckoning and a foundation. Tyler Boy Sammy uses his songs as the primary lens for his story.
