A “Wheezy outta right here!” tag to start out, a Future sermon on the finish, Urus vans and tarmacs in between: The most popular new Lil Child observe feels fairly acquainted. Extra considerably, “Dum, Dumb, and Dumber,” from Child’s new album, WHAM, spells redemption for Atlanta’s beloved Younger Thug. That is Thugger’s first new verse because the plea deal that spared him from a possible life sentence on RICO costs, but he makes a two-year jail stint sound like a tenting journey. “I don’t even consider I used to be locked up forreal, forreal,” he proclaims. “I used to be having my manner the entire time, idiot.”
Apart from that, “Dum, Dumb, and Dumber” is enterprise as standard. Child, Thug, and Future lace essentially the most exorbitant, gold-plated frills they’ll put into phrases over doomsday bells and first-class snare rolls. Future’s crib comes with an elevator; Thug screams “Ski!” from a ship; Child boasts “25 vehicles, one man” prefer it’s a Guinness World Document. Noticeably, Thug’s vocal extremities of days previous really feel distant now: As a substitute of frantic haymakers, he slings even-keeled jabs, sustaining steely composure. He’s not right here to interrupt a sweat. It is a three-man weave of adorned veterans who signal max contracts with their eyes closed.
