Saturday evening, South Florida’s own Kodak black made the decision to release four tracks just for the culture. What seemed to be arbitrarily picked cuts, however, all seemed to serve a purpose in hindsight. The first three tracks released, “Roll n Peace 2,” “Right Now,” and “Down South” were all Kodak’s own flips of known tracks, with “Roll n Peace 2” taking place over Lil Jon’s “Lovers and Friends,” ‘Right Now” going over King Louie’s cut of the same name, and “Down South” paying homage to Lloyd and Ashanti’s “Southside” duet.
The only track to deviate from this similar characteristic is the final track uploaded to the 20-year old's Youtube channel, “Snap Shit.” It was back in August that a viral video surfaced of Kodak vibing to unreleased music in the studio. Soon after, the track was leaked and labeled as “Fresh Out (My Struggle),” but now Kodak delivers on the song's official version as “Snap Shit.”
Produced by JayO, responsible for DJ Khaled and Drake’s “To the Max,” “Snap Shit” is virtually the same except for a new verse midway through the song. “I ain't puttin' up with that, no I ain’t havin' it / Been showin' too much love, no more after this,” he asserts. “They told me I’m a star, actin' like I’m average / 'Cause I be rappin' but I don't be on that rappin' shit.”
Currently, Kodak Black is readying for his Project Baby Tour across the country. Set to wrap up on December 22nd in Boise, Idaho, the tour will make stops in cities that include Philadelphia, Washington, D.C, New York, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, St. Louis, San Diego, and Seattle before reaching its final stop.
He’s also gone on to hint that he’s been in the studio with Lil Wayne and even stated that he wanted Future to hop on the collaboration as well. Only time will tell what fruits come of that link up.
Quotable Lyrics:
Girl don’t call my phone with that and shit
Fuck it, I don't owe a nigga shit
I been out here thuggin' since a jit
Remember we was strugglin' in the bricks
Nigga had to go and hit a lick
I was throwin' rocks in the ditch
