Tobi Lou's a bright young star coming out of Chicago right now. He's dropped a significant amount of music over the past few weeks and it doesn't look like he's slowing down. He has a distinct R&B flavor to him that doesn't sound like a lot of the stuff that's coming out these days. Today, he comes through with a brand new single featuring Smino.
Tobi Lou and Smino link up on their new collaboration "Troop." The song's production was handled by Tobi Lou alongside several other producers including Charlie Handsome, Yugi Boi, JuiceBangers and more. The song has a future bass-esque sound to it but it makes it a perfect canvas for both Lou and Smino to hop on. The two of them compliment each others sound very well and this song is hope that they got more in the cut.
Quotable Lyrics
I don't get involved with y'all, all the blogs and all
Don't give a fuck who fuckin' Kylie
Jenner ish with the dish I feel like Kyrie
Team first, n*gga that's the top of the key
