Sorry to disappoint any, uh, spanking fetishists who may be reading – Ghostwridah‘s latest feature has absolutely nothing to do with sore posteriors. The Red Bottoms referred to on the inaugural leak off the emcee’s forthcoming mixtape are the kind found on all Louboutin high heel shoes, as referenced in Hova‘s I Know. Here, the Miami native calls attention to a seldom-discussed, but very real ailment that preys on the pocketbooks of women and, sometimes, the men who love them: the shopping addiction. Backed by Don Cannon‘s glitzy synth instrumental (and mixed by Miami Beat Wave), Ghost describes the havoc that lavish spending can wreak on the lives of females, from college-aged vixens to thirtysomething mothers. Imploring women with a fetish for luxury goods to step away from the mirror and open their eyes to the bigger picture, the artist sends a lyrical message rarely heard in the appearance-obsessed world of popular music. For more insightful rhymes and hot beats, check out Ghostwridah’s ImFlashy.com/DJBooth.net-cosponsored In Love With My Future mixtape when it drops in early March.

Its been a while since we've heard a dope Jay-Z sample worked into a record. This works well. All around enjoyable record from an artist you need to be checking for.

Sidebar: This song was released momentarily on Monday evening, but removed. It is now cleared through all parties for posting. Thanks for your patience during this time.

1. Great to see that the art of storytelling is back in hip-hop.
2. Excellent way the Jay-Z sample got worked in.
3. Does anybody know who did the background vocals? That lady KILLED it right there!

Alot to like about this! Sick Beat, Dope Jay-Z Sample, Seamless Bars and as BURMY put it the female background vocalist KILLED it. I can't wait to hear this in my car!

Wow this is a great song. Love the beat, the vocals by homegirl were sick, and the bars were crazy.

the beats is smooth ass hell...flow sounds nice, got some bars, head nodding...the girl adds a lot to this track...she should have been singing the hook tho...just because their is a sample doesn't mean you can cheat and not have a hook...this track deserves your creativity...def not a banger but ill put in heavy rotation...

Too many artists foolishly sample another musician's work and worse yet it sounds terrible when they put their spin on it, that is most def. not the case here. straight banger here! I got you guys there for a second huh? haha)

Rockin it solid as a banger... Reminds me of something my old flatmate would dance and sing a long to while cleaning up in just her T-Shirt.. In fact it's a track that most of my fellow female friends would probably enjoy dancing and singin a long to thinking no one was watching
