It was all good just a week ago 4 real

Or, in this instance, foreal foreal.


Ezale's next single sounds right up my road judging from the trailer here, but Instagram snippets have a tendency to lead to instant disappointments. When Nef The Pharaoh posted a teaser for Mozzy's Be Here on the 'gram in early January, I thought the rapper formerly known as Lil' Tim had the song to capitalize on his buzz: a low-key mob music equivalent of what Lemonade was to Gucci Mane in 2009. Then that shit dropped in plena a week later and what June On A Beat gaveth Mozzy with the Buck Rogers boom-clack production, he also tooketh away with his crappy hook which sounds like it'd been slid in from another song entirely. My heart sank like "no thanks!"

It sucks when you set your expectations too high (geddit?). What's really gonna suck, however, is if this Ezale single features a guest verse from G-Eazy.

  1. if this song ends up being #ungood, I am going to weep. Seriously just followed him on IG just so I can know when it drops.

  3. I can't even front though - I dig G-Eazy's Order More as a radio jam.

    I was listening to Capital Xtra and heard what I thought was a Jeremih song with Post Malone. Shazamed that shit and was slightly relieved to find out it's actually this G-Eazy song featuring some no-name sanger. Not so much "The Moment I Feared" as "You & I Are Gonna Happen, That's Just Inevitably" come to fruition.

  4. "Me, Myself And I" is my G-Eazy guilty pleasure.

  7. I remember a few people with usually respectable opinions on rap ridin' for his Car Full Of Killers song back in 2010.

    Me, I've only ever listened to him on the 3 albums with Jacka.
