The Single Notez :

“Time Today” keeps things brief, running only 2:17

Malicious-sounding, minor-key production by Real Red and YC; definitely gives the rapper ‘fuel for the fire’

Moneybagg Yo is tough AF (“I don’t like niggas, I don’t like bitches / I don’t like nobody”); love the masculine, unapologetic nature and sound of his flow

The best part of “Time Today” is the beginning of each verse, which is infectious

As respectable as this banger is, “Time Today” definitely doesn’t reinvent the wheel; it’s not transcendent (nitpicking)

 Memorable lyric(s):

“I just looked at my wrist, I got time today
Fuck it I’m crossin’ the line today.”

“A huncho it cost you a Quavo to book me.” 

In Closing: Rapper Moneybagg Yo delivers a hard-nosed, tough banger with the short but potent “Time Today.”
