Like the apocryphal pink beetle, Irish rapper Rejjie Snow is an exotic, peace-loving creature not to be fucked with. After releasing "D.R.U.G.S." last month, Snow returned yesterday with "Pink Beetle." Like "D.R.U.G.S." it is produced by Rahki
The chorus brief interpolates the Sean Paul "Get Busy" melody over a tottering major-minor vamp. Snow is even raspier than usual as he raps about woman, wealth, status, seemingly more concerned with wordplay and rhyme schemes than creating a coherent picture. If his words aren't coherent, they are vivid.
Listen to "Pink Beetle" and read HNHH's interview with Rejjie Snow.
Quotable Lyrics
All these niggas robbers playing rappers greatest actors
Me I kept a humble me, I did it this my greatest chapter
(?) here with bodies lay, mummified and on display
Zulu with the shackles free and weapons be the up and keep
