Sli'merre

Thanks to his multitude of hits for Playboi Carti, Pi’erre Bourne sports one of the most instantly recognizable producer tags in the rap game. Fans of Young Nudy boast even more familiarity with that *Jamie Foxx Show*-referencing snippet, seeing as their fruitful partnership touches all of the Atlanta rapper’s *SlimeBall* mixtapes and the creepily compelling *Nudy Land*. The joint effort *Sli’merre* displays everything right about their pairing—the warbly trap beats and slightly askew flows of cuts like “Dispatch” and “Gas Station” cooking up with narcotic ease. 21 Savage and Lil Uzi Vert come through with memorable features on “Mister” and “Extendo,” adding their juice to an already overflowing spiked punchbowl.
