Crabs in a bucket. Beginning to feel more like a source of envy than a beacon of hope among those trying to scratch and claw their way out of his hometown of Bompton and into a land of prosperity, YG remains focused on the task at hand while everyone else is up in arms on his ballistic new banger “City Mad” featuring Mozzy and Slim 400. But what is it that has stressed-out locals losing their minds to the point of practically pulling their hair out?
“The city mad ’cause everybody ain’t got it / You do what you want when you poppin’, but everybody ain’t poppin’,” explains the West Coast MC, securing placement on the last nerve of all wannabees as his accomplishments crawl continuously under their skin. “I’m like the only one out the city droppin’ / So they gotta f*ck with me, they ain’t got an option,” he rationalizes however, acknowledging that while everyone wants a piece of the pie, there may not actually be enough to go around after all.
The P-Lo-produced track is one of two new releases from YG along with the Slim400-assisted “Goapele Freestyle,” arriving less than 72 hours after “I Want a Benz” featuring Nipsey Hussle and 50 Cent. “If y’all feeling this new shit hashtag #OFFMYBULLSHIT,” he tweeted – the same description displayed on the artwork for both of today’s freebies – perhaps alluding to a new mixtape and prequel to his sophomore album Still Krazy. Sounds like a ticking time bomb.
