Do you know what day it is? It is Wednesday, folks! Do you know what that means? Why, it is Wacky Wednesday! In the spirited column Wacky Wednesday, we analyze, break down, and explore songs from various musicians of various genres that can be considered unique, unusual, or ‘wacky.’  These songs can be new or old; the only requirement is that they ‘catch the ears’ because of their distinctiveness.  With the background established, in the 49th edition of Wacky Wednesday (2025), we break down the unique “FOREVER AGAIN”, performed by Yeat. Wacky Wednesday vibes commence!

“Off with they head, you a dead man walkin’,”
Yeat raps in the chorus of “FOREVER AGAIN”.  He continues, unapologetically, “Keep pushin’ on or get the fuck from ‘round here / Off with they head, yeah, keep yo’ shit from ‘round me.” Oh, snap! “FOREVER AGAIN” is the 12th track from the rapper’s 2024 album, LYFESTYLE. Sapjer and Quincy Sxbra produced it. One of the reasons that “FOREVER AGAIN” is intriguing is that it marks a stark contrast for Yeat.

“FOREVER AGAIN” features a picturesque musical backdrop, filled with synths and pads. Yes, synths are a typical part of the Yeat listening experience, but it hits differently here. This is NOT your typical hip-hop/rap backdrop.  Given this unexpected sound, he allows himself to go out of his comfort zone… well, to an extent. “Girl, I know you like this lifestyle (Woo, oh) / Know you like this lifestyle, you can’t keep away (Woo, oh),” he melodically raps, and continues, “Yeah, I get you bent, get you broken, throw away, yeah (Woo, oh) / Beg, you gotta ask if it’s okay (Woo-uh, ayy).” Woo! There is no shortage of confidence – the man is ambitious!

“And I’m geekin’, I ride with a gun, in the big body Tonka today (Woo-uh, ayy)

Yeah, we come out, we chasin’ the sun, and we countin’ my bands today.”

Word! In this melodic performance, he exhibits a distinctly different cadence and flow. A pop, electro-oriented hip-hop track is ear-catching, that’s for sure! Interestingly, “FOREVER AGAIN” features two lengthy, repeated choruses, adding to the unusual, irregular nature of the track. “FOREVER AGAIN” is odd yet oddly satisfying.  Pardon my French, but this shit slaps! There is something hypnotic and mesmerizing about it.
