Listen To Skepta’s new record, “Ladies Hit Squad,” feat A$AP Nast and D Double E.
The latest episode of OVO Sound Radio just finished up, and some listeners have got to be disappointed that Oliver El-Khatib didn’t play any new material from Drake, especially seeing that all eyes are on the 6 right now because of All-Star weekend. In any case, the episode did feature a tribute mix to Kanye West, which felt very timely and brought back a tearful amount of nostalgia, as well as a a few other exclusives.
Among the highlights was a new record from one of Drake’s Top Boys: Skepta. The new one from the London emcee is titled “Ladies Hit Squad,” and it features another grime man, D Double E, as well as A$AP Nast. Grime, rap, trap — whatever; every time Skepta links up with an American artist, it’s a banging tune. “Ladies Hit Squad” is a more toned-down record than novice Skepta listeners (like myself) will be used to — the man continues to impress with his versatility. The track captures a late-night vibe that falls somewhere between the bedroom and the strip club.Hopefully the BBK/A$AP collabs are just getting started.
