While Logic ‘talks a lot of sh–’ on “Everybody Dies,” his third single post-Bobby Tarantino II, you can’t help but admire his explosive flow.

“I just took a hiatus and wrote a novel, motherf*cker / I got more verses than the Holy Bible, motherf*cker.” Logic certainly has no shortage of confidence EVER.  On his latest single, “Everybody Dies,” he continues to show just how much he believes in himself.  At times throughout the single, there’s even a sample praising his awesomeness– “You are watching a master at work.” The entertaining follow-up to “The Return” and “One Day” begins with a soulful instrumental intro, follow by an unapologetic statement, “Yeah, f*ck that shit.”

“Everybody Dies” features a dusty, soulful, East Coast rap beat.  Furthermore, the synths and pads are effective – nothing too crazy but naturally suit Logic’s explosive flow. He isn’t playing around on the hook, which is definitely catchy:

“This what you all been waitin’ for, ain’t it?
Rap game owe me, I been waitin’ for the payment
All these little rappers come and go, wonder where they went
Ten years of runnin’, yeah we came up from the basement.”

As aforementioned, he serves up cocky, confident, and turnt-up rhymes, with no shortage of memorable, punch lines. “Man, I wish I could be a dog in a rich family / Oh how nice would that shit be, my life a catastrophe,” he spits on the first verse.  He continues, asserting, “Now my shit a masterpiece, No Limit like Master P.” Later on the same verse, he states, “I am not top ten, more like top three / I am not two ‘cause, nobody could top me / Get the pussy wet like Jodeci, you know it’s me / I can’t seem to put my finger on it like a rotary.” Notably, you’ve gotta love how Logic’s vocals are layered throughout “Everybody Dies,” coupled with the agility and speed of his rhymes.

Final Thoughts

Cutting straight to the chase, Logic talks a lot of shit on “Everybody Dies,” period.  No, not all of it – perhaps not even much of it – is incredibly deep. Still, you have to admire his flows, and some of the bars as well.  He should feel confident, even if it is a bit overkill at this point.
