Slayter slides through with his bar-heavy new single off of his forthcoming project.

Slayter enlisted a slew of revered rappers to deliver a bar-fest on his new single, "Diabolical." Teaming up with Benny The Butcher, Smoke DZA and Retch, he unleashed the first single off of his forthcoming project, World Got Me F*cked Up due out this Friday. The rapper announced the project a few days ago along with cover art that acts as a premonition of sorts. The cover art includes a photo of two cops pushing him against the hood of a car with the world in flames behind him.

"I  shot this cover over 6 months ago. I wasn’t sure if I should even drop my tape with everything that’s going on but then I remembered how I felt in December when everybody was fronting on me and I couldn’t catch a break. I remembered how frustrated and angry I was that everything around me was falling apart but I still knew I would persevere because I thrive in chaos. I love mayhem because that’s what exposes everybody’s true colors. And that’s when I realized a lot of people in the world prolly feel that way right now. I would be doing the people a disservice to hold on to this pain during a time like this," he wrote.

Peep the song below.

Quotable Lyrics
I must just dunk off in the hills with a model bitch
Popped a half a 30, shorty threw it back, I demolished it
Asked about you in your hood, they told me you was not legit
Last of a dying breed, I hope they acknowledge it
