Nispey Hussle has been very active in 2016. He set the comment section ablaze with his collaboration “FDT” with YG, released a collaboration with Young Thug and dropped the song “Ocean Views” last week. Today, he dropped probably his hardest track of the year in “Basic Instinct.”
The banger features fellow Los Angeles native G. Perico as the two rap about the seedier parts of their city's gang life. Mars & Mike and Keys produced the skittering beat, which features minor keys over trap cymbals and sparse bass hits.
Where does “Basic Instinct” rank with Nipsey’s other songs of 2016? Check out our tracking of Nipsey's movements as we wait on Victory Lap.
Quotable Lyrics
While I'm here take a pic please
you know legends die young
rest in peace Prince and Pimp C
From the block to the big leaves
self-made millionaire, white America ain't pimp me
don't tell me that its skin deep
don't tell me that I'm trippin' homie, listening to my instincts
