SwaVay and James Blake‘s new collaboration “BILLY” is just a taste of what’s to come on their upcoming full-length mixtape. The lengthy track is a prime example of storytelling at it’s finest, as the Atlanta native creates an undesirable alter-ego named Billy and justifiably comes for his neck. “Billy married to his Instagram, Billy like to follow all the trends, Billy falling into quicksand,” SwaVay meticulously spits across the track.
“James and I were in the studio freestyle over his beats and we created this alter ego named Billy,” SwaVay explains. “He’s modeled after every fuckboy kid we’d ever met.”
Don’t expect to comprehend the density of this track with just one listen. “Billy” is jam-packed with an overwhelming amount of substance, and I suggest you tune in below.
