(From 2 Slizzy 2 Sexy (Deluxe) album; 2022)
On one hand, this is the first Cash Cobain & Chow Lee song to catch my ear. On the other hand, it'd be way better without the Auto-Tune because it just sounds like Chicago-Bop with samples rather than a new amalgamation of Rap and Club music dunnit? The Auto-Tune also obscures Max B's influence here because the words and how they're delivered is some classic priapic Biggavelz porno muzik innit? Anyhoo, good song but not quite good enough to make it into my top 5 Club-Rap songs of 2022 so far. Quinary of Quality playlist time again:
2. Asian Doll ft. Bandmanrill - Get Jumped
3. D4M $loan - Swiper
4. Kenzo B - Bump It
5. Cookiee Kawaii - Is U Mad?

Like that Cookiee Kawaii song a lot.
The new Hip-House!
I'm hearing UK dj's say that US rap is no longer being played in clubs over there
The U.K DJ guys who play the bars I go to are utterly clueless about U.S Rap which isn't Spotify-core, so all you'll hear is Future, Gunna, 21 Savage etc, Megan and Cardi hits, the big Pop Smoke songs, and endless shitty Drake singles.
Dunno if it's the same for clubs. Then again, bars with DJs + dancefloors are basically classed as clubs here, at least outside London.
it's unclear from our convos if they are willfully ignoring / too lazy to dig for the new shit or if they are indeed playing and it's not working, i'm guessing it's the former
Yeah, I doubt most U.K DJ guys will know songs like Oochie Coochie or Get Jumped. Spotify really turned DJs and audiences middlebrow as fook as far as U.S Rap goes.
The one upside to this is that I can go out to a decent bar with a dancefloor and hear the DJ playing my favourite recent homegrown singles like Je M'appelle, Packs and Potions and Up North.
Tbf I doubt most U.S DJs are playing songs like Oochie Coochie or Get Jumped either.
Across the board, it seems like most DJs don't really dig or break songs anymore and just stick to playing obvious hits for punters who don't want to hear anything they're unfamiliar with.
Holy shit that Kenzo B bumps. Great shout.
Get Jumped stays in rotation.
Bump It = officially my favourite Pulp Fiction soundtrack-core song since Hollywood Holt's The Show.
D4M Sloan's voice is different lol.
Keeping Agallah's Crookie Monster voice alive.
Agree on the autotune thing - really getting into this bronx/brooklyn drill stuff atm and the lack of autotune is refreshing (i love autotune done well but its kind of played out at this point)
Took me a while to get acclimatised to the aggression but that barrier overcome there's a lot of great stuff from sha ek, kay flock, edot babyyy, dougie b, b-lovee etc.
Outta that whole recent-ish movement the songs I really like are Kay Flock's Is Ya Ready and SOS B4L's Beeper.
I suppose Kenzo B's song in my playlist in this post kinda falls under the Bronx Drill umbrella too.
Thanks for the 'Beeper' tip, also a fan of 'Let's Talk Facts' SOS B4L/Jbgkel
Added it to my list fwiw https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3K4sAoRXq6E8voVxRQrW1D?si=52a3f39a9567415e
👍
WAKA was the first New York Drill song I liked.
