The Cat's Out the Bag

Shad dropped his new single today- "Yaa I Get It".


His wordplay is impossible.

This track has surpassed my high expectations. I've never heard anyone fire off this many similes/metaphors/double entendres/puns in that short amount of time.
He's unstoppable.

Normally this part of the post would be where I'd type out a couple lines that I especially liked, but I can't do that without typing out the whole song.
It all flows together so perfectly. I couldn't write down a line without including the one before it, and the one after it, and the one after that, etc.

And aside from his poetics, I like that you can hear him smiling.

I think Shad is ready to take Hip-Hop into the future. He has the skills to create the fan base, yet he'll never sell out.


All I can say is, I'm glad I'm not a rapper.
