Arriving through the newly-minted Def Jam arm, Overdose is an introduction to the rapper and his desire to put that authentic rap flow back into rap music, teaming up with Supah Mario (who counts Young Thug and Drake among his discography), for a track that doesn’t let its hip-hop status be overshadowed by the production around it.
“In this day and age, in the climate of hip-hop we’re living in, it’s more important than ever to have bars,” he says on the track and what he seeks to present as a new name joining a saturated rap scene. “The new melodic wave is so amazing, but I felt I needed to look back at what hip-hop was founded on, and that was wordplay and bars.”
