Take It To Ya Mouth

"F*ck dat n*gga, he ain't got no motion
That ain't his money on the 'gram he postin'
N*gga been a joke, but a bitch ain't jokin'
Tryna come back, what the f*ck you smokin'?"

iCandy - Keep Dat N*gga
(From Keep Dat N*gga single; 2023)


Exactly what I want from my 2023 viral Pop-Rap. One song which scratches two itches for me: a lass talking disrespectful shit and a My Boogie Shoes sample. Somewhat of a lazy nostalgia-bait sample you might argue, but I don't even care because My Boogie Shoes is a de facto top three song on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Actual factz: My Boogie Shoes shoulda been three minutes longer, while Disco Inferno shoulda been three minutes shorter.

**EDIT** Trick Daddy should do a remix of the iCandy song. Bring back battle-of-the-sexes answer records in Rap IMHO. From Roxanne Shanté's Roxanne's Revenge to Too $hort's Yo Neck, Yo Back/My Dick and My Sack, it's all #banter innit?

Sustaaas are doin' it for themselves

"Me don't speak no English to detectives so don't ask me
I ain't seen or heard shit - ain't no egg, you can't crack me"

Day Day Sustaaa - Hit They Block
(From Hit They Block; 2023)


Another slab of Baton Rouge granite from Day Day Sustaaa. In Day Day's Bayou tapestry, Hit They Block is too short to work as a proper single so it jams hardest if you use it as the B-side to Get Somebody Else To Do It.

Yay: a reference to Phat Baby's Proper Play (FWS).

Nay: wearing KanYe Pest's ugly shoes in 2023.

On my worst day you couldn't even sit next to me, respectfully!

"Bitch, I'm tryna break that n*gga pockets, break a n*gga pockets
I'm tryna break a n*gga pockets, break the n*gga pocket
Ain't got no cash, can't get no ass, that's just how we rockin'
Don't want no feelings or no dealings if you can't take me shoppin'
Bitch, I'm tryna break that n*gga pockets, break a n*gga pockets
I'm tryna break a n*gga pockets, break the n*gga pocket
Me and my guhs want the plug, we ain't talkin' sockets
Who got the p's, not the ones who don't make no profits"

Day Day Sustaaa - B.A.N.P
(From B.A.N.P single; 2022)


Here at The Martorialist we've been feelin' Da Ladeez talkin' flagrantly on tracks this month, so here's an insanely 'ard Baton Rouge song to go with Lebra Jolie's What Kinda and Gloss Up & GloRilla's Best Frenn. Sisters on that back like a bra strap or wot? Turns out this Day Day Sustaaa lass already has an internet-hit with a C-Murder beatjack, so fingers crossed the TikTok massive work their viral magic with B.A.N.P too. Sharing is caring.
