jopippins released his sophomore album Digital Native last year, but the North Carolina genre agnostic is not slowing down; last month he shared a new video for album deep cut “Grass Is Greener” and today he returns with a brand new cut called “otw”.
A song that’s equal parts stressed and carefree, “otw” finds jopippins listing the multiple pressures that hamper his life in his raps, but it all fades away when he’s with his buddies. Delivered over his shape-shifting future-R&B beat, the waved-out but triumphant chorus “I’m with the gang and we on the way / I’m with the gang and we ’bout to go up baby,” is a future anthem for crews everywhere. “otw” is one to play at the end of a stressful week, when you realise you’ve got a weekend of sheer fun with friends ahead – and nothing can stop you from getting wild.
With more to come from jopippins soon, make sure to follow him on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
