“Pain is finding out you’re poor/ with the cops knocking at your door.” – Pusha-T

Pusha-T keeps his recent mean streak of 16’s going over this Kanye West production featuring the trap’s favorite crooner, Future.  We’re hoping to get an actual date on his solo debut soon, releasing via Def Jam. Until then, listen to the self-described “drug dealer brilliance” here.

“This is drug dealer brilliance”

Pusha T delivers his latest single, accompanied by Future. Classic coke raps from Push, an ice cold beat and autotune. Okay, two out of three ain’t bad. Check it out now.

For a song that says so much, this video doesn’t show anything… As always, Loso’s “Pain” – off of The S.O.U.L. Tape – is a dope listen. There’s a witty one-liner every other second and the rap is deep, with lyrics concerning everything from poverty to god to violence, but the video is, well, boring. Fabolous and his girl drive and walk around aimlessly, nothing happens, and the shots really don’t match up with the lyrics at all. What a disconnect.

But you might as well watch it for the song, and then judge for yourself.
