They Hate Change: the story and songs to start with

They Hate Change build from Tampa localism into a wider Gulf Coast sound

They Hate Change is a Tampa hip-hop duo whose work grew out of DIY shows, bedroom recording, and a strong interest in the UK club continuum. The supplied sources describe Andre “Dre” Gainey and Vonne Parks as longtime collaborators who met in Tampa, made music together as teenagers, and later shaped a style they call the Gulf Coast sound. Their releases connect Florida rap to jungle, drum & bass, UK rave, and other club forms, while keeping Tampa landmarks and local references visible in the project’s videos and visuals.
