3.5 out of 5 stars

Mod Sun, Movie ยฉ RostrumUp-and-comers Mod Sun and Dej Loaf join forces to deliver a hot, highly enjoyable track, โ€œWe Do This Shit.โ€ Indeed, they do.ย 

Mod Sun definitely isnโ€™t a household name.ย  For that matter, neither is his partner in crime (Dej Loaf) for swag-filled single, โ€œWe Do This Shit.โ€ Arguably, Dej Loafโ€™s name is more familiar.ย  Regardless, after unleashing โ€œWe Doโ€ on the world, maybe more folks will want to check out MOD and Dej Loaf.

One thing that canโ€™t “be beat” is slick production work.ย  The beat is excellent, while the ostinato piano adds the โ€œcherry on top.โ€ Coupled with the standout production work, Mod Sun delivers catchy rhymes on the verse and the hook.ย  The reason why heโ€™s so successful is the fact that he shows off his big personality, particularly the ad libs.ย  As great as verse one is, MODโ€™s second verse (verse three) is arguably the best.

โ€œSometimes Iโ€™m hella picky / like when Iโ€™m pullin sticky out the zippyโ€

The pop-rap elements during Dej Loafโ€™s verse are superb. Coupled with the edgier, more aggressive and direct rhymes, the up-and-coming MC has something working for sure.ย  She ends up being a perfect fit for MOD.

Going back to the hook, it isnโ€™t characterized by its profundity:

โ€œWe do this shit every night / we can get whatever you likeโ€

While its simple and lacks depth, the hook is definitely catchy and appeals because of its catchiness. Of course for the carefree youth, having the โ€œs-bombโ€ doesnโ€™t hurt.ย  Is that reference even a proper alternative? Unimportant!

Final Thoughtsย 

When itโ€™s all said and done, โ€œWe Do This Shitโ€ does just thatโ€ฆor something like that. It is well produced, catchy, full of personality from MOD and Dej Loaf.ย  Itโ€™s not the second coming, but it is both enjoyable and respectable.
