The latest episode of OVO Sound Radio just finished up, and some listeners have got to be disappointed that Oliver El-Khatib didn't play any new material from Drake, especially seeing that all eyes are on the 6 right now because of All-Star weekend. In any case, the episode did feature a tribute mix to Kanye West, which felt very timely and brought back a tearful amount of nostalgia, as well as a a few other exclusives.
Among the highlights was a new record from one of Drake's Top Boys: Skepta. The new one from the London emcee is titled "Ladies Hit Squad," and it features another grime man, D Double E, as well as A$AP Nast. Grime, rap, trap -- whatever; every time Skepta links up with an American artist, it's a banging tune. "Ladies Hit Squad" is a more toned-down record than novice Skepta listeners (like myself) will be used to -- the man continues to impress with his versatility. The track captures a late-night vibe that falls somewhere between the bedroom and the strip club.
Hopefully the BBK/A$AP collabs are just getting started.
Quotable Lyrics
I'm gonna hit the g-spot when I get the jeans off
Press on the gas and then I ease off
Kiss on ya neck, there ya go, ease off
Back so big look like ya jeans shrunk in the wash
- Skepta
