Toronto rapper and OVO affiliate Gilla comes through with a remix of DVSN's "Hallucinations." Gilla shared this behind the scenes anecdote, stating "I was in the club with DVSN and their song came on and Daniel Daley (DVSN vocalist) was like 'yo, you should remix this on some street shit, I know you would kill it'." The remix clearly stemmed from a place of mutual respect, and Gilla most definitely lived up to his promise to deliver some street shit. His verse opens with a visceral gun-riddled depiction of life on the streets, ducking the law and bringing holy retribution to any unlucky enough to be his enemy.
Stay tuned for Gilla's new mixtape, Stay Solid Part 2, out later in 2017.
Quotable Lyrics
Why you grippin' on your waist I don't know you
Don't make me shoot you, like I owe you
Is that the nigga over there I have beef with?
He a ghost now - how do I see him?
Wipe my eyes I look back and he gone
My mind playin' tricks, the life of a don
