Rich The Kid continues “Bossman” rollout with another new single, the playful and flex-heavy “Red.”

As for “Red,” the brief single bops along with heavy 808s and a sincere little synth loop, not unlike the more whimsical work of Pi’erre Bourne. The perfect backdrop for Rich’s quick-tempo flow bursts, flex after flex delivered in true Bossman fashion. “The Glock got a beam on it, my money so tall I can lean on it,” he raps, a master of the non-sequitur. “He talkin’ the smoke but we want it, I pull out the dick, she ease on it.”
At this point, it’s unlikely that The Kid will convert skeptics into fans, yet his formula has proved effective all the same. Look out for that new Bossman album to hit next Friday, March 13th.
