A-Trak - Ray Ban Vision
Artist: A-Trak
Featuring: CyHi The Prynce
Producer: A-Trak
Album: Fool's Gold Vol. 1
Label: Fool's Gold
While Ray Bans never really seem to go out of style, their classic Wayfarers have recently come back in a big way – ‘round my way, they seem to be the sunglasses of choice for hipsters and hip-hop heads alike. Realizing that the timeless shades are long overdue for a musical tribute, heavyweight DJ and first-time featuree A-Trak has enlisted Southern buzzmaker Cyhi Da Prince to create Ray Ban Vision, the latest leak off his forthcoming compilation album. Over Trak’s synth squiggles and buzzes, the freestyle series alum celebrates the versatility of his favorite eyewear. Whether he’s avoiding glare on the road, trying to block out an ugly face, or even getting it in, they stay on at all times: “I wear ‘em while I’m whippin, I wear ‘em while I’m f*ckin, all my women think I’m trippin’...” So, Booth readers, is this accessory-themed banger just good, or is it spectacular? If you choose the latter, you can look forward to plenty more dope collaborations on the Fool’s Gold Vol. 1 compilation mixtape, set for digital release October 25.

A-Traks has been concocting productions like this for years, but this is definitely a new look for CyHi. And you know what? It f**king works. Fool's Gold has always been a forward thinking label and its obvious in their wide-ranging collaborative efforts.

CyHi sounds natural on this one. I agree Z, this more than works sonically. I'm not too sure about the whole Ray Ban concept though. This might be preemptive, but let's hope CyHi doesn't make TOO many of these cuts.

Heard this the other day and have been telling people how much that beat is blazin! Mixed with the trendy subject matter, this actually has a shot at urban radio and expect to hear this at your local house party, club, etc.

I have to be honest, I don't want to like this. It's that kind of catchy rap I'm getting sick of (plus all the hipsters around my parts rock Ray Bans), but I just can't stop my head from nodding. Well done guys.

Haha @Nathan how many people are rocking those Ray Bans right now? I can walk down the street and lose count on the people wearing the same pair.
