Sli'merre 2
When Young Nudy and Pi’erre Bourne dropped *Sli’merre* back in 2019, they recruited superstars like 21 Savage, Megan Thee Stallion, DaBaby, and Lil Uzi Vert to help prop up their psychedelic, red-eyed collaborative project. On the 2024 sequel, though, the duo opt to mostly handle things themselves, with Nudy riding high off the success of his 2023 album *Gumbo* and Pi’erre in a similar boat following his decision to release some of his rarest snippets in an EP titled *Grails*. With a sole feature from BabyDrill, *Sli’merre 2* is entirely centered on Nudy’s flow and the way he wraps himself in the warm, synth- and bass-heavy beats from Pi’erre. The Atlanta-born rapper remains as defiantly playful as ever, dedicating an entire track entitled “Money” to “trying to break” his bank account, and another that finds him explaining how little he worries by invoking the age-old saying of “Hakuna Matata.” As is always the case when Young Nudy and Pi’erre Bourne link up, the duo cook up the cleverest, strangest, and most interesting ways to highlight just how colorful this world really is.
