B.o.B returns with a new song titled “Ol’ Dirty Bastard.” The rapper continues to release new music pushing the narrative that a new album might be on the way. Following up his single “Magic Number” with an accompanying, animated, School House Rock-themed visual. B.o.B has shared another song that samples Wu-Tang member Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s “Shimmy Shimmy Ya.” On the track, B.o.B. spits some streetwise bars as he takes shots at today’s’ music culture. Not only does he accuse artists of being clones of one another, but he also raps that the game has gone soft. “How a pop n*gga got the biggest nuts in the room?” he rhymes.
The music video shows a grill-wearing B.o.B. as he takes to the streets to deliver a Wu-Tang, 1990s hip hop-inspired visual. The rapper and his crew rock New York attire and get hyped together as B.o.B delivers conscious rap bars. The rapper’s final album was supposed to be last summer’s NAGA, but it looks like he may have some fire in his belly—enough of a flame for his forthcoming project SouthMatic.
