Episode Date: February 24, 2023

After dropping multiple projects last year, the Portland-based rapper returned this week with his third studio album AftërLyfe. The effort arrives about a year after Yeat unleashed his sophomore LP 2 Alivë, and nearly six months after he came through with his Lyfë EP.The 22-year-old artist teased AftërLyfe in his Complex cover story last year, saying he was approaching the album in a completely new way.“I’m coming way different on the album,” Yeat said. “It’s a whole different sound fully. It’s just rap beats mixed with… It’s just a different style. I don’t know. It’s not regular rap beats. It’s a whole different new wave.”source: Yeat Unleashes ‘AftërLyfe’ Album f/ YoungBoy Never Broke Again | ComplexPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

I was pulling up with thugs. I was pulling up in ghost. I've been pulling up in big whips. Yeah, y'all are still smoking runs. Yeah, a whole lot of money. Little expeditive. I got a bunch. I don't even need no security.

I got guns. I need me a moment of clarity. I'm moving these tons. Now, ladies and gentlemen, that was a reading from verse one by the book of Schmuck

Shumunk I don't even know he said that Written by Yeet Featuring NBA Young Boy Now the reason I'm covering this is You already guessed it NBA Young Boy as

That Man's fan base is just impeccable at this point in time And The reason I like to read off lyrics Is just show you how Trash some of these Mumble rappers are when it comes to conveying a point and getting across the lifestyle, they literally just regurgitate whatever they've heard

and don't put any type of unique spin on it. Now, of course, if you heard my review of Yeats' album, you could probably say that this man is not really fond of Ye as an artist, which you would definitely be correct. You know, I don't try to hide that at all. As far as the artist, I dislike when it comes to quality levels. But the thing that irks me is just the most, mumbo, and I don't even want to sound old, but it's just mumbling through a track has never been appealing to me.

Like, one of the core foundations of hip hop was to display your creativity while also rhyming. It's not like just rhyming for the sake of rhyming. Like, oh, I got a fight to make it right. Like, you know what I mean? Like, you got to put some type of unique spin on it and give your own perspective, which is what makes hip hop so beautiful as an art form, not this regurgitating of stuff you've already heard from other people. It's kind of like when Nas said, I forget the line, Benny was he was like, you heard it from your pad, scribbled in your notepad, and created your life, or something like

that, I totally messed it up, but y'all know what I'm talking about, right? Hip hop is supposed to be a unique art form to where you can express yourself, not regurgitate which you've heard, growing up. But of course, can I fault for that? Of course. And that's why I'm doing it right now. But anyways, let's get to the highlight of why I'm even covering this. So N-B-N-Boys on this track, it's called Schmuck, if you want to look this up. It's S-H-M-U-N-K. So you let me how that's pronounced. I mean, it's schmunk. I don't know. Maybe I said it right that time. But I feel like in general, that's just a terrible track name. But you have Young Boy on it. So, I mean, how bad can it go, you know? Of course, Young Boy comes on.

talking about all type of violent activities, even though he started a movement called Stop the Violence. And not only that, but he did an interview with Elliot and BDOT Wilson. I think, I think it's BDOT Wilson or just BD. No, I think it's Elliot Wilson and BDOT. Anyways, he did interview with them. You can look it up. It's like came out not too long ago. And when I tell you, I think they kidnap young boy and put a clone in his place because that whole interview was him just, oh, you know, I was just a little kid growing up. I was just really getting bullied. I didn't like getting bullied. So whenever I was getting bullied, I just really didn't like it.

So I grew up to be an angry young man. I really didn't like being angry, but they was bullying me. Like, it was the most outlandish interview I've ever seen because if you've seen young boy in his natural habitat, and yes, that's what I'm calling. in it. He is very different than what you see in that interview. Now, it's people multifaceted, of course, but is young boy trying to push an agenda to cross over into a different

demographic, aka to older people, so he doesn't just look like a murderous young rap artist? I think that's exactly what it is. Because in today's age, you have to cross over at some point, and to do that, you have to do things that's kind of out of your comfort zone. It's just to see

that from young boy in the interview. you, it was one of the most uncomfortable situations, one of the most uncomfortable interviews I've ever watched, because it's like, you know that's not him. And obviously, you don't want to act like you know a person, but when you've seen four to five years of young boy just talking naturally, and then you come into this interview, which you already heard, I was like mimicking his voice. But, you know, it's not really as appealing to the average young boy artist because we know how he acts naturally. And that's the key word, naturally, not forced, not publicized by his major label to get him into another demographic. Naturally, we know how he talks. So, yeah, that's why I bring that up. But on this, you know, he says pull up with sticks and then got a whole hundred.

Get this expeditive covered. Let's see. What was another one? I ain't coming if they ain't at the shooters end. Been filling myself. What else? Pray your whole click gets spent. Pray your whole click, get shot, expeditive, leave that exfitive back in.

I'd just be gunning on show. Mama, I gotta get a big back in. That'll sound like somebody who's promoting Stop the Violence. But anyways, click my link to you in my bio. Let me know one of my social medias. What do you think about Yeat and Young Boy currently as far as the artistry is moving them? And in general, do you think this schmunk track is fire or trash.
