After the success of his 2009 debut LP, ‘Boy Meets World,’ Fashawn is back with a new track and more details for his sophomore album and spring tour.
Appropriately titled, ‘Guess Who’s Back,’ the song is actually about his experiences in his hometown of Fresno, Calif. The Beewirks-produced tune will immediately grab you and get your head bopping to the gritty mid-tempo beat and Fashawn’s confident rhymes.
“N—-s fear me, clearly, they are not on my level / I’m a prophet, a rebel, obviously ghetto / Cockin’ my metal, autograph-signer / When I stopped in Villaro had 12-year kid tell me I was his hero / But instead of a cape, I wear a cap, who’s to say I alter my fate / That ain’t a fact,” he delivers.
‘Guess Who’s Back’ is the latest single off the rhymer’s upcoming LP, ‘Ecology,’ which is executive produced by Nas. The effort arrives Feb. 24 via Mass Appeal Records. If you want to jump on this album early, you can pre-order here and receive ‘Guess Who’s Back’ as an immediate download.
The West Cost rapper will also be heading on the road in February, performing in various cities around North America including Atlanta and Boston as well as stopping by SXSW. Check out the dates and the full tracklist for ‘Ecology’ below.
