Yelawolf - Lets Roll
Artist: Yelawolf
Producer: The Audibles and Mr. Pyro
Album: Radioactive
Label: Slumerican/Shady/Interscope
While Yelawolf‘s sound and swagger are unmistakably his own, the Alabama repper certainly isn’t the first one to mix a little country-rock flavor into his hip-hop. On the follow-up to lead selection Hard White (Up in the Club), the Booth-acclaimed lead single off his debut studio album, the reader fave (and freestyle series alum) joins forces with an artist who cultivated a similar aesthetic before leaving his hip-hop influences behind. Lets Roll finds co-producers The Audibles and Mr. Pyro serving up a driving synth-percussion instrumental to back Yela as he spits about his humble origins (“Let me welcome you to my small town / Big trucks in the yard, big bucks on the wall, country folks all around.”) and his successes to date: “White trash and all, take us all the way to the top and then laugh it off / Like how the f*ck did I get a catalog with more hits than a f*cking jackhammer, dog?” The aforementioned guest, rapper-turned-singer Kid Rock, echoes the headliner’s sentiments on a sweeping hook—no flowed bars from the Detroit vet this time. Need more Yela in your life? Then be sure to pick up your own copy of his Shady/Interscope debut, Radioactive, set to hit store shelves and online retailers Nov. 21.

When you think about it... this collaboration isn't that unlikely. My only complaint is that Rock's contribution is not more powerful. However, with Yela's name (and music) still on the rise, maybe that was the idea (its never good when the guest artist outshines the feature headliner).

Not feelin this, Yelas vocals are off, the production is bland, Kid Rock's hook is probably the best thing here.

I kinda feel the beat on this track. Chorus is pretty cool too. Haven't heard Kid Rock in a while and he sounds good on here. I like Yelawolf's flow on this joint too. I can dig it. This is a Banger.

YelaWolf has a great line-up for us I'm sure, definetly copping 'Radioactive' when it hits. Pretty catchy chorus and when has Yela's rhyming bored you I say?

Imagine, just imagine some heavy guitars and a Travis Barker drum contribution instead of this pop-trap nonsense...

What is sunbear talking about? This production is dope. Shouts to The Audibles and Mr. Pyro. Also Yelas verses dont sound off at all. Thats just how his flow is. Not much mixing can do to help that. Anyways this track is fiya. Great idea not giving Kid Rock a verse. Im sure he can still rap but Rock is a country singer now. He killed the chorus and that was good enough for this track. Looking forward to Radioactive.
