Driicky Graham "Snapbacks & Tattoos"





Can you believe that we've been around for twenty-five years and we haven't reviewed a Driicky Graham song yet? No. FUCK YOU. We haven't. In fact, we haven't reviewed a classic Snapback song since the Stack Boys. We're slackin' on the snapbackin', sonny.

If you don't know, Driicky Graham is an eleven year old North Carolina native who is bitter rivals with both T.I. and AZ because they both just use letters for their names. That's 100% true, look it up on your search engine.

Anyway, if there is one thing I like it's Snapbacks because they just look so nice for any occasion. Riding with your mom to BK, buying Halo 3 used at the pawn shop, or even skipping out on synagogue cuz it's so boring (#YOLO), the snapback is the preferred look if you want to make a statement (that you're a dunce bag club poppler).

And Tattoos. So cool. Just get a ton of them and you'll never regret it. Ever. And if you want to upgrade just tattoo over that shit. Boom. A mom heart easily becomes a dragon. A tribal easily becomes a dragon. An owl (for the ladies) easily becomes a dragon. Why would you not have a tattoo?

OH SHIT! What about a tattoo of a snapback? Perfect. If that isn't in this video I'm going to shit on it with a "0/10" score, because a smart artist like Driicky Graham should have definitely thought of that before.

What else? Oh, I've never heard of this guy before, and I would never listen to this song except to kick the shit out of it in a review. Let's listen/watch.

HAHAHA. I still haven't listened to it. I was just doing some B.S.. #sorry. I'll listen to it now.


ME

Eeeee. Yikes. Absolutely nothing new here. Except maybe a stupid way about singing about tattoos. Hats. Cars. Girls. Money. Repeat. Driicky let's me know that I'm now in Swag School. Dude, don't you know I dropped out of school and I'll continue to drop out of all schools.


cool?

 So, Driicky. Can I call you Driicky? Let me get this straight. You say:

"Snapbacks and tattoos. Nice whips, fly chicks, all that, because cash rules."

How exactly is cash ruling connected to Tattoos? I don't understand the connection. Costco Connection? Explain. Explain why your raps suck. You say nothing new at all. Shit, this is just nonsense. Just like that little rap I wrote before. Fuck. Just listing things you like (that everyone likes (honestly)) then you just say things that are in every mixtape ever. So stupid.

IN CONCLUSION: Look, this is pretty basic. No tattoo of a snapback = no points.

SNAPBACKS & TATTOOS SCORE 0/10

Trackmasters - J. Cole "Enchanted"

Trackmasters - J. Cole "Enchanted"


My mixtape of the year: 2010


Official Stats:
Artist: J. Cole
Title: "Enchanted"
Uploaded to DatPiff: 11/12/2011
Listens: 775,000
Affiliations: Jay-Z, Omen, Fayetteville

This is going to be really short. First, J. Cole is my favorite new artist, his two major release mixtapes have been amazing.  His first (and often pushed back) real album Cole World has promise and BETTER BE GOOD OR ELSE...SERIOUSLY THIS BETTER BE GOOD.  Anyway, one of my favorite tracks off of Friday Night Lights is called "Enchanted" and features Chicago small-time MC Omen (who holds it down by the pound).  So the reason for this post is this: when I hear this track (which is a lot) I always think of the novelty song "Inner City Pressure" by Flight of the Conchords.  This isn't anything against Mr. Cole, both tracks are good in their own way, it's just odd.  For this post, I'm just putting the two songs side by side so you can be the judge if they have similar music (esp. the synthesizers):

J. Cole "Enchanted":

Flight of the Conchords "Inner City Pressure":

Maybe not, I don't know. Or care.

OH: If you haven't heard many J. Cole tracks, check for him.  And if you haven't seen Flight of the Conchords, you'd better see it (if you like jokes that are funny).


Score: 10/10
Comparison Score: 6/10
