$uicideBoy$ clearly ‘don’t give a –’ on their hard-nosed banger, “Carrollton,” the promo single from their upcoming mixtape, ‘I Want to Die in New Orleans.’

If you needed a banger, well, $uicideBoy$ have recorded and delivered the perfect one with “Carrollton.” Anyone familiar with the Louisiana rap duo know that these boy$ go hard as a mofo. There are no exceptions on “Carrollton,” or better yet, ‘no f**ks given.’

Jumping right in, “Carrollton” features an uncredited intro by Juicy J.  What a way to kick things off.  As great as J’s kickoff is, it’s the sick production work – bass-heavy 808s and the sound of utter, minor-key maliciousness – that makes “Carrollton” the banger that it is. Lil Cut Throat (aka $crim) raps the first verse.  He sets the tone by initially performing in a low-key, yet grimy fashion, before getting totally amped-up. His rhymes are hard-nosed, tough-minded, and unapologetic to the nth degree.  A perfect example arrives at the end of his colorful verse:

“Smoke leaking from the sticky that we smoking, boy / F**k a backwood, Swisher’s what I used boy / Smoke what I choose, do what I wanna do / Mother-f**k you and your punk friends too.”

Ruby da Cherry arrives to bless the second verse. Like Lil Cut Throat, he begins more low-key, still biting, before getting totally wild.  His own colorful verse closes as follows:

“‘I don’t give a f**k’ is my f**king epithet / Lace up my Nike Decades, meet me at Heaven’s Gates / 7^th Ward by the lake ‘till my death.”

Final Thoughts 

So, here’s the deal. If you like hardcore rap, chocked-full of cockiness, f-bombs, and sheer hellishness, then “Carrollton” by $uicideBoy$ is your cup of tea.  If you don’t like those things, to quote The Killers, “Run for Cover”.  As for me and my ears, this is a straight-up BANGER.
