Though a pandemic struck a few months back, and major label artists started pushing back albums in order to have a proper roll out, it has been the independent and underground artists that have kept out playlists refreshed with new music. Iamsu!, specifically, has steadily released new music on a weekly basis as part of his "Weekly Drops" series. The singles have shown all sides of his artistry from the more introspective sounds to boisterous bangers.
This week, Iamsu is back with a massive banger alongside 24hrs titled, "X Games." Piano-laden trap production serves as their backdrop while the two deliver massive flexes with introspection throughout the track. It's possibly one of the best tracks that Iamsu's released as part of his series. Check out his new song below.
Quotable Lyrics
Had to get up off my ass and go after it
Had to get inside my bag, immaculate
It's a feeling that I get, I can't articulate
