The BAYB trio follows up after “Season’s Greetings” with another single off of their upcoming mixape Ziploc Hip-Hop.

Make sure your seat belts are securely fastened and your tray tables in the upright and locked position. Jarv presses the warp speed button on his swisher spaceship for this cut. We’re already making great time in the chorus as Jarv spits two hooks at the same time.

Recalibrate your moral compass for the next verse. Nacho recites another scripture from the Mack Bible, King Jesse version. His game is effortless and casual. Eat your heart out, Big Daddy Kane, apparently pimpin is easy.

Young P Steez warms up to his verse with a bridge that is something of a nursery rhyme. Apparently the game is elementary, a kindergarten version of himself backing him up on the vocals. “Dro, dough, and mo” remains the motto. In a short verse, he criticizes the establishment’s treatment of young black men and mocks the eagerness of young women to impress him.
