(On My Block)

Once again, Snotty is back in full force and with his usual partner in crime, GoodPhella, on the beat, and you’ve got a recipe for another banger. Let’s get to it!

This time around, Good comes with a mellow, piano-key-heavy instrumental over some glossy, ambient sounds in the background. This is probably the most skeletal and stripped-back beat I’ve heard from GoodPhella and especially one I’ve heard Snotty rap on! 

On this one, we hear Snotty more calm, composed, and collected than ever. This feels more like an introspective ‘speaking out loud’ moment for him. Compared to normal bars from pen to mic, this feels more like 3 a.m. thoughts come to life in recording. 

His flow is a bit slower than normal, his tone more serious, and his lyricism feels heavier and more reminiscent than usual. I feel like on the upcoming album, this will be the Eminem ‘The Way I Am’ portion of the record. Just bearing his soul and feelings at the current time, and although it isn’t as raw or grimey or as hard-hitting as we’ve seen, he can be, I do like that he feels free to explore more options for himself and try new things in the studio!

So, in conclusion. Definitely a dope track as per usual by this collaboration but more reflective than anything, and who knows, maybe we will hear more of this side from him coming or maybe this was a once-off track, but regardless of the outcome, Snotty remains as one of the strongest lyricists in the game, and GoodPhella, one of the strongest producers out! Together, they can’t miss!
