Smokepurpp & Murda Beatz drop off a hypnotic banger with "Pockets."

Smokepurpp and Murda Beatz joint project has been in the works for several months. Once they announced it, it seemed like it could've possibly been a project that's announced but never came into fruition. Fortunately, that wasn't the case at all. For the past few weeks, Smokepurpp and Murda Beatz have been teasing the project with singles like "123," "Do Not Disturb" and more. After dropping Bless Yo Trap in it's entirety this morning, one track that stood out in particular is "Pockets."

Smokepurpp and Murda Beatz "Pockets" is an automatic highlight off their collaborative project, Bless Yo Trap. Purpp has mastered the art of repetitive yet infectious hooks and he showcases this to the fullest on "Pockets." However, the highlight of this is Murda's production on the track. He delivers a dark and hypnotic keyboard progression while the bass rattles throughout the track. 

While both artists are getting ready to embark on separate tours this spring and summer, you could only expect some of these bangers to be performed live. Smokepurpp's getting ready for the Monster "Outbreak" tour which kicks off on April 19th in Orlando. Murda Beatz will be joining an all star roster of Lil Uzi Vert, G-Eazy, Ty Dolla $ign, YBN Nahmir and P-Lo for the "Endless Summer" tour.

Quotable Lyrics
Nigga get popped like a tic tac 
Smoking on bubble, that piss pack
Run up the racks, yeah I did that 
Run up on me, put your shit back
