Rumour has it your kitty burnin', girl, that's a Hellcat

LARussell & P-Lo ft. D-Lo & Malachi - Yankin'
(From Majorly Independent EP; 2024)



... and speakin' of P-Lo, he produced LARussell's new single which I fuxwit. We got subtle but effective use of the Sonic Boom thud-reverbos; we got three rappers & one producer with chemistry galore in the single-take video; we got a chorus which shouts out Messy Marv and The Jacka; and we got a finger-snappin' riddim. Unfortunately, we also got LARussell wearing Nu-Metal lookin' ass trousers which are even worse than the JNCO lookin' ass jeans LL Cool J wore in the Saturday Night Special video. When did Rappers become the most swagless dressers on the planet? What happened to the world?

"I been slappin' all my life, you been slappin' for a month"

"I'm ridin' round town, bitch, I gotta keep it trill
Wakin' bitches up with the speakers in the grill
Even if you deaf I bet a n*gga can feel
'Cause the rear view mirror shakin' like it got the chills"


Ghost8800 - Sonic Boom (video mix)
(From YouTube; 2012)



Ain't gon' lie, ya host had never heard this revamped mix of Ghost8800's MySpace staple Sonic Boom until what would have been his birfday today. Same Gas as the O.G version but with at least 50% more crispy pop in its trunk. Song's been slappin' since last decade, but I'd never blapped it like this until tonight.
