This is a song we missed from “Trap Lord”. But it’s good, even if we have gone a bit off rappers with dollar signs in their names, yes even our one time fave Joey Bada$$ who has failed to live up to the early promise.
BUT every now and then there is a pearl amongst the swine, a jewel in the shit and the A$AP’s Shabba is a perfect example of this -
It’s also a good excuse to remember Shabba’s bad ass classic from the day which was whatever the opposite of “conscious” is.
But to set the record straight not to forget Shabba’s desperate failure on UK youth culture TV show “The Word” (go to about the 4:30 mark to see why it was “infamous”)
At least Buju found some sort of way to righteousness later with the magnificent Til Shilo record, righteous in a Marley sense if you don’t know it.
