A “Wheezy outta right here!” tag to begin, a Future sermon on the finish, Urus vans and tarmacs in between: The most well liked new Lil Child monitor feels fairly acquainted. Extra considerably, “Dum, Dumb, and Dumber,” from Child’s new album, WHAM, spells redemption for Atlanta’s beloved Younger Thug. That is Thugger’s first new verse for the reason that plea deal that spared him from a possible life sentence on RICO expenses, but he makes a two-year jail stint sound like a tenting journey. “I don’t even consider I used to be locked up forreal, forreal,” he proclaims. “I used to be having my approach the entire time, idiot.”
Apart from that, “Dum, Dumb, and Dumber” is enterprise as traditional. Child, Thug, and Future lace essentially the most exorbitant, gold-plated frills they will put into phrases over doomsday bells and first-class snare rolls. Future’s crib comes with an elevator; Thug screams “Ski!” from a ship; Child boasts “25 automobiles, one man” prefer it’s a Guinness World Document. Noticeably, Thug’s vocal extremities of days previous really feel distant now: As an alternative of frantic haymakers, he slings even-keeled jabs, sustaining steely composure. He’s not right here to interrupt a sweat. It is a three-man weave of adorned veterans who signal max contracts with their eyes closed.
