Russ gets grimy on standout "Pull The Trigger."

Russ channels some gritty old-school mafioso rap on "Pull The Trigger," the penultimate cut off his brand new album There's Really A Wolf. Produced by the man himself, Russ flexes the bars and the vocal chops over a classy piano loop. While Russ' twenty track album boasts a diverse sonic array, "Pull The Trigger" stands out for its simplicity, thanks to a straightforward drum beat nineties fans will surely appreciate. The track was originally released well before the album, but it has officially found a home on Russ' jam-packed debut.

From a first-impressions listen of the album, it seems like Russ is still in the process of discovering his sound. Still, if this "Pull The Trigger" is any indication, he definitely sounds at home on that minor-key crime vibe. If you dig this, check out the album in full on all major streaming services.

Quotable Lyrics

Choruses that fit the opera, that's why I need phantoms
I got my doubt at gun point, that's why I need ransoms
And I be handsome, that's why I got your girl before the money
Honestly, I thought I'd have 30m's before my twenties
But I'm cool with how it's happening
Girl in San Fran who wants to cross routes with me
Like a Yung Colin Kapernick
Treat the money like a lateral, I'm passing it
