Your Old Droog has dropped a banging new posse cut featuring Denzel Curry and Method Man. Titled “DBZ,” the lyrical free-for-all was produced by Madlib. Stream it below.
Trading bars over an expertly-chopped soul sample, each rapper gets off their best punchlines and pop culture references. Droog opens the track by comparing haters to NBA player Dillon Brooks, who cost his team a playoff series against LeBron James due to his antics: “You ain’t no villain, you Dillon Brooks/ Let me guess, you on your Grizzly, tryna diss me/ I’m looking at him like Bron, ‘Dawg, who is he?’”
Grabbing the mic for the third verse, Method Man name-checks Spider-Man and shouts out his native Staten Island, rapping, “Love Mary Jane like I’m Peter Parker/ SI New Yorker, we don’t make up stories, Sephora.”
Closing out the track, Curry shouts out Drake (“Workin’ to get bigger than a n****a who starred in Degrassi”) before going at less-skilled rappers: “When I grab the mic, I crush your stamina, you will be damaged/ ‘Cause using big words don’t make you lyrical/ And goin’ backwards in a swimmin’ pool don’t make you spiritual.”
“DBZ” is a preview of Droog’s upcoming album, which currently doesn’t have a title or release date. Earlier this year, he teamed up with Heems on “Sri Lanka.”
Meanwhile, Method Man (Meth Lab Season 3: The Rehab) and Denzel Curry (Melt My Eyez See Your Future) both dropped their latest albums in 2022. However, you can catch Curry on tour with $uicideboy$ this summer; get tickets here.
