Starting point is 00:00:00 Now, you would think that Navaraj and Little Uzi would be the greatest combo. But Nav and Swadee is another contender for that type of dynamic duo to go or to attach to Nav. Because I don't know what it is about Navaraj. And yes, I am calling him that because that's his government, I guess, technically. But a lot of people really enjoy Nav when he's on a feature-type run. And I think right now in general, he's on a very interesting rollout to where. where he's talking about putting out an album, but he's also not confirming any type of upcoming music.
Starting point is 00:00:36 So now that we have this Swaley and Nav track called Calling, literally, it's like, no pun intended, it's like titled Calling for the Spider-Man across the Spider-Verse movie. It's one of those type of tracks where, obviously, I haven't listened to it, so I can't get into a review. But from Faith's Value, it's not too many tracks we have with Swaley and Nav.
Starting point is 00:00:58 I think it's about, like, four tracks we have. The biggest one I'm seeing right now, if I was the guess, would be probably slide from Nav's album, Perfect Timing. But maybe it could be relocate. I'll have to listen to it. But basically Swately and Nav isn't the greatest combination. But I think sonically, they could catch one.
Starting point is 00:01:23 You know, it's like one of those type of things where I don't think they mesh really well. but if the right producer brings the best out of them, which I think Metro could, it could end up sounding like the greatest thing ever. And I mean like that sincerely. Like I do think Swayley's one of the best chorus makers in the business. And I do think that Nav would give a solid verse if push comes to shove. Because if you remember, Nav has some top hits of his own because in general,
Starting point is 00:01:53 you don't get under the wing of the weekend. talented. I mean, you see Nav, you see Belly. Both of those artists are very talented. Belly just released the album not too long ago. Straightfire. I mean, that man's rapping ability is out of this world. Really is underestimated and is understated how, like, how great that man is when it comes to rapping. And I think in general, sometimes a co-sign from a huge artist could overshine you to the point where you don't get your flowers. But I think that's not the case for Nav. Nav does. get his flowers. It does come with a lot of jokes about, you know, him saying the N-word and he stopped and stuff like that. But in general, Nav is one of those type of rappers where, you know, he's really
Starting point is 00:02:37 out the way, reminds me to takeoff. He's not too controversial. Or actually, it doesn't remind me to takeoff, because he did go on an interview talking about he wish he would have got more cameras, like taking pictures of him when he, like, walked out of clubs and stuff. So takeoff was really out the way. Nav is, like, close, but not as close. Like, he would say some crazy things here and now. here and then. But in general, I would have to listen to the track. I don't really have too much
Starting point is 00:03:01 to say about it. Besides, Sway Lee and Nave isn't the best way to use Swayley. Like, I think Sway Lee and, like, a future or a Swayley, why not just run the sunflower part two?
Starting point is 00:03:15 Like, why not just have Swayla and Post Malone put out another track and just be like, hey, they came back again for this soundtrack. Like, I don't see why it didn't happen. Maybe it was a money issue. Maybe it was like a post Malone not wanting to do it issue.
Starting point is 00:03:27 but at the end of day, I think in general that he's definitely one of the better chorus makers in the business. I think he shows that time and time again. So anyways, click my link to show my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Swayley's chorus making ability? And do you think Nave and Sway Lee is the best duo to put on this soundtrack? Or if not, which person would you place with Sway Lee to perform? on this soundtrack
