This March had a ton of fantastic rap releases from Tierra Whack’s “Whack History Month” singles, maybe 2 Chainz’ best record yet on Rap or Go to the League, ScHoolboy Q’s return on “Numb Numb Juice,” Saweetie, Quelle Chris’ Guns, DaBaby’s “Baby Sitter” with Quavo, and Lil Nas X’s fantastic country-rap crossover “Old Town Road,” but the best release of the month was GREY Area by London MC Little Simz.
“Venom” the fifth track on the record, spits just that, as Simz gets ferocious on the mic with lines such as “Fuck those who don’t believe/They would never wanna admit I’m the best here/From the mere fact that I’ve got ovaries.”
Read the lyrics via Genius and listen to Little Simz’s “Venom” below:
[Little Simz – “Venom” Verse 1]:
Life sucks and I never tried suicide
Mind’s fucked even more than I realize
Time’s up, keep a league in when she arrives
If you ever heard what I heard in my mind
Never try, you would cry, that’s a lie, you would die
I don’t wanna ever come down from my high
I’m in the best seats, from time, been the next breed
If you comin’, come at me directly
Don’t need no one to defend me
Soul’s in a place even I can’t get to, don’t fuck with the deadly
Mid waves and open seas, quit coastin’ overseas
Fuck those who don’t believe
They would never wanna admit I’m the best here
From the mere fact that I’ve got ovaries
It’s a woman’s world, so to speak
Pussy, you sour
Never givin’ credit where it’s due ’cause you don’t like pussy in power
Venom
