Chevy Woods - Straight Ballin'
Artist: Chevy Woods
Featuring: Shiest Bubz
Producer: LthaGreat
Album: Red Cap Music
Label: Taylor Gang
Based on the work of Pittsburgh’s most prominent rap representatives, Black and Yellow hitmaker Wiz Khalifa and rising star Mac Miller, a naïve listener might assume that the worst thing that can happen to you in the Steel City’s mean streets is that you get a little too baked. Here to dispel all illusions and introduce heads to the seamier side of his hometown is Booth newcomer Chevy Woods, with new mixtape single Straight Ballin’. While kush is indeed a factor in the emcee’s verses, delivered over the ominous organ chords of LthaGreat, it’s clear that Woods has something a little more serious than Mary Jane on his mind. After strongly implying through veiled threats and onomatopoeia that anyone who gets in his way has a slug or two in their near future, he claims “I don’t even talk about guns,” evidently daring some intrepid soul to point out his self-contradiction. Big Apple native Shiest Bubz handles guest duties, lacing the middle with his own nonchalant brand of block talk. Sure to garner repeat spins from those who like their hip-hop heavy on the grit, this joint is just one of many hard-hitting cuts showcased on Woods’ Red Cup Music street album, available now online.

Hook was weak but the flow was so cold. The beat was ridiculous.

Not the best lyrical performance you will ever hear, but his delivery was on point. I was skeptical of the beat at first, but I came around and it's actually pretty dope.

It was pretty good for Chevy's first(?) single. His verses that are featured on Wiz' Cabin fever are on point, so he could be pretty good with some growth.
