Shy Glizzy's year's been great thusfar. With the amount of music he's dropped off, he's garnered the well deserved attention that he's worked hard for. Today, he links up with Trey Songz and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie for "Dope Boy Magic."
"Dope Boy Magic" is a smooth and gritty banger from Shy Glizzy. Shy Glizzy takes us down memory lane with his latest single. The rapper goes back to the time when he used to be working the streets prior to the success of music. Trey Songz and A Boogie add their own perspectives of living lavish as an artist while comparing it to the dreams they used to have of making it.
The release of this single comes shortly after he gained a Grammy nomination for his collaboration with Goldlink for "Crew." The song is nominated for Best Rap/Sung Performance.
Shy Glizzy has also announced the release date for his next project Quiet Storm EP. Expect the project for December 12th.
Quotable Lyrics
I'mma ball, I'mma ball
Nigga no look passin
I'mma hit makin' addict
I don't want to go savage
