Cordae is gearing up to release his sophomore album “From A Birds Eyes’s View” on January 14, but before the project lands, the DMV rapper is taking a moment to talk his shit.
On Friday (January 7), Cordae released “FABEV Freestyle,” a four-and-a-half-minute lyrical exercise over Kendrick Lamar‘s “The Heart Part 4,” which itself was a warm-up to Kendrick’s 2017 album DAMN.
Accompanied by footage of him exploring Paris with shots of the iconic Eiffel Tower in the background, the track finds the 24-year-old rapper staking his claim as the best MC of his peer group.
“From a Birds Eye View, I’ll reassure what you already knew/One, two, three, four, five/I’m the best rapper under 25/And this ain’t saying much, it’s no surprise,” he raps over the Axl Folie, Syk Sense and DJ Dahi production.
