In his verse, Hit-Boy name-drops his fellow producers, and it reportedly aimed at Hitmaka who recently called himself hotter than Hit-Boy because he got more radio hits.
“But I never once heard Metro Boomin do boom bap / I never heard a Southside beat without 808 in it / H bein’ drunk-driver mode, I swerve in every lane with it / I f**k with Monster, he can make that ratcher sh*t with his eyes closed,” he raps.
The track kicks off with Alchemist delivering a verse over Hit-Boy’s suave beat, confidently discussing his chilled-out lifestyle and flaunting his success in the hip-hop industry. While Alchemist’s verse serves as a reminder of his rap skills, it’s Hit-Boy’s bars that steal the show and draw the most focus.
In a sudden twist halfway through the song, the production shifts to Alchemist’s style, and Hit-Boy begins to call out other producers, including Metro Boomin, Mustard, and most notably, Hitmaka.
