Yelawolf - Push Em
Artist: Yelawolf
Featuring: Travis Barker
Producer: Travis Barker
Album: Psycho White EP
Label: Slumerican/Shady/Interscope
A few years ago, when Yelawolf was just beginning to build his buzz, the Alabama native had to overcome the hurdle of looking more like a tattooed punk rocker than your typical rapper. Now that he’s established himself as one of the most gifted emcees currently doing it, however, Michael Wayne Atha’s decided to see if the shoe fits by creating a collaborative project with Blink-182 drummer-turned-solo phenom Travis Barker. Today, we get the video for the first taste of the project in the form of lead single Push Em. A genre-blending experiment just crazy enough to work, the record finds Barker pounding out a relentless oom-pah rhythm as Yela drops some characteristically hyperkinetic flows, before switching up tempo on a chorus/breakdown guaranteed to get the mosh pit raging when the record’s performed live. Skinhead Rob and Tim Armstrong amplify the cut’s breakneck energy with some bellowed call-and-response hook vocals. Psycho White is set to hit record stores and online retailers November 13. In the meantime, fans of Barker’s percussion can get another fix via Xzibit‘s Napalm, released earlier this month.

I feel like knocking on the door of my neighbor, punching him in the face and starting a riot on my block. Thanks, Yela.

Travis is getting his drum-on big time in this one. Tight work by Yelawolf on the different-style flow. Gotta feel this high energy joint for the masses.

The drums on this by Travis Barker is dope. Yelawolf comes hard on this as I think this is the type of songs he should do. I feel amped.
