Shimmy
“Just ‘cause you bought that vintage Margiela / Don’t change your flight from Spirit to Delta.” Wooo! This has to be the hottest bar of 2020 thus far. Alright, alright maybe I’m a little biased since I actually work for the more prominent airline, but you’ve got to admit, it’s hard.
The aforementioned lyrics are from Aminé’s first loosie of the decade, rightfully titled, “Shimmy.” The potent Portland spitter has all the power to do his little dance because this marks his comeback to music after a nearly two-year hiatus! Co-produced by a slew of scorching maestros (Nik D, OZ, Pasqué, Maneesh, Vinylz and Boi-1da), the boisterous track features Aminé shitting on his contemporaries, flexing his impeccable rapping ability and affluence.
“Shimmy,” is inspired by Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s (RIP) 1995 mega-hit “Shimmy Shimmy Ya.” Hopefully we’ll hear more heat rock from Aminé later this year. For now, check out the music video below:
