Logic, “Vaccine” [📷: Def Jam]Post-retirement, Grammy-nominated rapper Logic brings confident bars on the brief “Vaccine,” set to appear on Bobby Tarantino III.

“Aw yeah, just me and my dogs, yeah / Give a fuck ‘bout what y’all doing, yeah we goin’ hard all year.” 🎙 Logic just lays it out there on 🎵 “Vaccine”.  How much does “Vaccine” have to do with the Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson? Little to be honest but I’m totally okay with that. Having the ‘retired’ rapper back and set to drop 💿 Bobby Tarantino III – “Ready to fuck up the game, BT3, now we at it again, man – makes this short and sweet, non-vaccinated banger worthwhile.

The reason why “Vaccine” works is because Logic doesn’t try too hard or do too much.  He’s got a nice canvas to paint over (Logic + 🎛 6ix), and paint he does.  Again, COVID-19 is not really on his radar but rather, dropping those bars man! On the brief first verse, he asserts, “Came back to the scene, came back with a team / Like rap ain’t a thing, I’ma do anything.” Woo! On the third verse, he talks plenty of shit, bragging, “Just me and the beat got you feeling defeat / I came up on the street now I’m bringing the heat.” Oh, and as for those haters “talkin’ that shit,” well, my boy either “blow it off” or “show ‘em love.”


Final Thoughts 💭 

I encourage all to get the COVID-19 vaccine, first and foremost. However, I also encourage all to partake of this two-minutes-and-change “Vaccine” from Logic.  He doesn’t serve up transcendent rhymes, but post-retirement, he’s confident with those bars.  Overall, his “Vaccine” is effective to say the least.
