YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Kick Yo Door [Photo Credit: Never Broke Again, LLC]Rising rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again return with his first new single of the 2019, respectable, but not game changing banger, “Kick Yo Door.” 

YoungBoy Never Broke Again has solidified his status as one of the more popular, rising rappers in the game.  Like many of his rap contemporaries, YoungBoy isn’t shy about dropping a heaping dose of new music. He’s back once more with his first brand-new single of 2019, “Kick Yo Door.”

“Kick Yo Door” just crosses the two-and-a-half-minute mark, common in modern day rap music. A banger, it’s set in a minor key, anchored by a hard-hitting beat, featuring simple synths that are effective enough, though could stand a bit more punch. “KickYo Door” commences with an intro, followed by the chorus:

“Bow, bitch, kick yo’ door, uh

Mission, find the stash spot

Make ‘em hit the floor, uh

I say hold yo’ hands high, don’t make me let it blow (Gang)

This ain’t the time for games now, bitch, I’ma wipe your nose…

This shit could go straight or I could leave here with yo’ head split

Bitch (uh).”

YoungBoy Never Broke Again has a respectable flow overall. It’s not game changing, but he brings ‘that attitude.’ On the first verse, he’s tough as nails, making threats if you mess with him (“Play with me, you must want death, I tell my shooter make a wish”). On the second, he references bitches (shocker), bodies/cases, and material.


Final Thoughts

All in all, There’s something here on “Kick Yo Door.” YoungBoy Never Broke Again checks off enough of the appropriate boxes, but I could personally use a bit more oomph and substance.  Good enough, but not great per se.
