The Single Notez ๐ŸŽถ:

โž• Mean-sounding production โ€“ surprisingly NOT produced by the do-it-all musician

โž• Loving the synth brass โ€“ adds some maliciousness to the backdrop

โž• Russ raps melodically over the sleek production work; remains confident AF

โž• Love the agile flow by Vitale; nice look for the rapper

โž• Infectious chorus

โž• Lil Baby enters the picture on the second verse with his distinct sound and his own agile, rhythmic flow

โž– I actually expected Lil Baby to out-rap Russ, but he holds his own


Memorable lyric:

โ€œโ€˜Cause I got your bitch now in love with me (Sheโ€™s in love)
And I'm in this bitch now, it's getting ugly (Sheesh).โ€

๐Ÿ” In Closing: Russ shines on โ€œUgly,โ€ with the assistance of Grammy-nominated rapper Lil Baby, and production โ€˜out of house.โ€™

4 out of 5 stars
