He also rides the action-packed instrumental really well, getting gassed up with its every twist and turn.Ĭhris Brown is featured on the second verse of this song, and you knew damn well that he would match Tory’s energy decibel to decibel.
On it, you get this amped up version of Tory that brings out high-pitched vocals and lots of braggadocios lyrics to the fray. In this high-octane album, “Duck My Ex” might have the most energy. I see nothing wrong with having a solid back-up plan in your arsenal. I’m one of the few people that don’t mind keeping my ex in the picture. Never go to Miami on Memorial day, folks… That day is the ratchetest of them all! In my opinion, the combination of the two is astute. As for Gunna, he gets a chance to also get lost in the beat, gifting us with a dynamic verse that has him utilizing this heavily melodic style. On Tory’s part, he sing/raps as if he’s freestyling, practically venting about both some reckless and vengeful s**t. “MiAMi” is tough as f**k! Despite the glamouring instrumental the rappers are tasked with, you get some serious street bars here by both Tory and Gunna. I can tell these n***as had mad fun making this joint.
(Ah, classic Meek!) Nah, frfr, please don’t sing again, Meek. He sings throughout, but that doesn’t stop him from talking about his choppers, racks or slutty women he’s dabbling in. Meek has the last verse on this song, and on it, he does his best impersonation of Tory. He also doesn’t dive deep in his bag vocally, opting to bring out his ‘huffing and puffing’ style of singing. “DRip Drip Drip” reminds me a lot of “B.I.D.” from Tory’s previous album: It has lots of energy attached to it, it’s repetitive, and Tory talks nothing but s**t on his contributions. I absolutely love how raw the track is, as it focuses on making our super star artist look vulnerable and human.
“Why DON’T You LOVE me?” is no different, as it features lots of soulful singing and lyric content revolving around the trials and tribulations that come with seeing your ex-woman ball when she’s no longer with you. They are usually passionate, featuring a version of our hero that is introspective and tough-minded. Tory Lanez has been untouchable when it comes to making intro records. In “Love Me Now,” he talks about finally being on rap’s Mount Rushmore, touching on the good, the bad and ‘the ugly that comes with success for literally 16 straight bangers. Tory Lanez has worked his way into hip hop’s elite by hard-work and determination.
