Farruko's "Krippy Kush" has been making waves for the past few months. The single dropped over the summer and has gained over 495 million hits on YouTube thusfar. With the strength of the single thusfar, Bad Bunny, Farruko and Rvssian extend it's lifespan with a remix from Nicki Minaj and 21 Savage.
While the single is already massive, Nicki Minaj and 21 Savage addition to the song brings another feel to it. The production is already trap influence and 21 Savage hops on the track without sounding out of place. Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj's versatility is continuously shown on this track. Nicki even delivers some a few bars in Spanish. The official remix is going to start making waves around North America soon. They may come from different backgrounds but this is a testament to hip hop as a global dialogue. Hopefully like the original, this one ends up with a visual treatment to accompany the massive remix.
Quotable Lyrics
Uh huh I'm smokin' krippy kush
Fill the backwoods up with a whole bush
I might pass it to the team 'cause she old news
Tryna make a hunnid M's using Pro Tools
