Well$ Drops “Some Heat That Has A Hint Of Truth To It”

The Congolese-American rapper borrows from Drake’s playbook.

August 13, 2015

With special thanks to the stimulants that fueled them (specifically: Vyvanse and first headlining tour excitement), Congolese-American rapper Well$ has delivered two new tracks: "608 In Cleveland" and"Naked Truth" The first is a looming freestyle that leans heavy on on Drake's playbook. The latter is a grinding meditation on the high-life featuring a collaboration Norwegian producer Hasta and additional backing vocals from FatherMIKE—or, as Well$ more aptly described it in an email to The FADER, "some heat that has a hint of truth to it." Listen to both below, and catch Well$ live in New York with London O'Connor and Allan Kingdom on August 26.
