Yo Gotti, H.O.E. (Heaven on Earth) | Track Review

Yo Gotti delivers an extremely familiar script on his brutally honest, sexed-up, unapologetic banger, “H.O.E. (Heaven on Earth).”

With Yo Gotti, you pretty much know what you’re getting – sex, sex, and even more sex.  Many times over, the Memphis rapper has exhibited confidence, cockiness, and of course horniness.  His latest banger, “H.O.E. (Heaven on Earth),” hence, sounds quite familiar.  Sure, Lamont Porter (EZ Elpee) and Mark Davon give him a sick backdrop to spit over, but the script is familiar to say the least.

The song title pretty much reveals Yo Gotti’s cards, if we’re being totally honest. “Oh, I’m rich-rich, shawty thick-thick / We fuck her friend together, that’s my bitch-bitch,” Gotti brags at the beginning of the first verse.  Again, it’s exactly what we’ve come to expect from him. He’s objectified women throughout his career, so why would “H.O.E.” be any different.  The second verse offers more of the same, including a reference to DMs (of course): “I’m Mr. Slide-in-the-DM, flay and go and see ‘em / Work her out like a trainer, but this is not a gym…” Again, Gotti leaves little to the imagination. At least give him credit for admitting what HE is on the centerpiece, the chorus:

“I’m a ho, I know I’m a ho
But don’t you call me that, lil nigga, that shit come with the smoke
I’m a ho, got bitches galore
How many Instagram models I done fucked on before?”

The chorus extends, but again, the script is familiar AF.

Final Thoughts 

Perhaps if you’ve never heard a Yo Gotti record, you’ll leave “H.O.E. (Heaven on Earth)” quite impressed.  If you’ve been following him for some time, well, “H.O.E.” and his hoe-ish, objectifying ways should come as no surprise.  It’s a banger but the question becomes, when will Gotti expand the script? Will his hoe-ish ways ever disappear and evolve into, um, I dunno, monogamy?
