Rounding out 2018, Pell was featured on XXL’s What I Do, where Pell was praised for his skillful freestyle, along with accompanying Doja Cat on her Amala Tour, performing at multiple festivals, and dropping new music.

The track begins with a classic guitar riff that is repeated throughout the entire song, as Pell raps above it with proclamations of self-love and a middle finger to any “doubters”. The guitar loop over a bouncy bassline creates a sunny all-love-everything vibe, making it a perfect top-down warmer weather hit to sing along to.

The hook “‘Cause I ain’t got no time for your bitch ass”, reminds the listener that in order to achieve your dreams and live your life, you can’t waste your time on the people and things that don’t matter. Pell tells his haters to “get burnt”, sticking to his work hard play hard style, reminding us that he will continue to rise, and isn’t here for the negativity. The beat rides out through the ending, keeping the guitar loop and bouncy bass, while incorporating brighter major chords that leaves the listener with positive vibes.

“Bitch Ass is a warning to those wasting my time,” said Pell. “While simultaneously being an ode to the friends that can call me whenever they need me.”
