Theme & Lyrics ✍

Before changing his name and tweaking his style, singer 🎙 Shelley FKA DRAM was known simply as DRAM.  Also, worth noting, ‘DRAM’ rapped as well as opposed to focusing on his best gift, singing.  Anyways, his 2016 debut album, 💿 Big Baby DRAM, featured the 🏆 Grammy-nominated, top-10 melodic rap hit, 🎵 “Broccoli”. “Broccoli” is the crowning achievement – the crème de la crème – but Shelley also compels us with surefire After Dark 🕛 🌃 s#!t: 🎵 “In A Minute / In House.” 

On the two-part “In A Minute / In House,” sex fuels the fire, period. “We ain’t X and O in a minute / I think I want you to come over, tonight,” Shelley sings on the chorus of “In A Minute,” continuing, “You say that you are celibate / Well, let’s celebrate the first time you / Get this pipe.” HOLY S#!T!  In addition to the chorus from “In A Minute,” ‘Big Baby’ continues to express his urges – his sexual motives. He asserts: “In a minute, I’ll give your ass a little slap / In a minute, cause I know you like it like that.” WOW! Other sexed-up one-liners include the power of his D (“My dick’s official”) and his skills in the bedroom (“You don’t know what the fuck you been missing / I done learned like 8 new positions”).

On “In House,” the second part, Shelley continues to keep things sexually charged.  Clearly, a lot of s#!t is going down “in the house”:

“Weed, got that in the house

Lean, got that in the house

Bitches, got that in the house

I wish I was back in my house

… I wanna be home, to the tender lovin’ darling baby.”

Overall, “In House” is slower, more enigmatic in quality. Still, that vibe remains lustful, adding some drugs to mix.
