Fabolous featuring The-Dream “Throw It In The Bag”
Every once in awhile a new song emerges that smells like a season-long smash hit based on it’s opening seconds alone. Right now, that record is “Throw It In A Bag”, a collaboration between Fabolous and the ever-ubiquitous The-Dream that firmly plants the duo in their most successful element: female-friendly club jam territory.
The official lead single from Fab’s upcoming fifth (!!) LP, Loso’s Way, “Bag” busts out of the gate oozing summer banger attractiveness thanks to producer Tricky Stewart’s tip-toeing piano lick and trash can stomp, and once Dream enters the frame cooing “I know you ain’t over there staring at my girl” in that addicting featherweight chirp of his, it’s future platinum-certified status is basically a given.
The only question is whether any of today’s struggling, un-employed masses will cry foul over it’s slightly cruel, recession-proof bragging (the song centers on Fab’s endless showering of his girls with expensive gifts, with more than one reference to his dismissal of “price checks”) or if everyone will simply accept it as an ear-candy escape from their real-life troubles?
Loso’s Way is set for a June release.
