“Ain’t no bitch from the D that got more motion than me,” Kash Doll boasts on “Nothin New” over a classic Helluva beat, and you’d be hard-pressed to spot the lie. On her second studio album, the reigning queen of Detroit rap makes it look easy, dropping heater after heater about spending your rent at the nail salon or wearing your salary on her neck. Listeners of a certain age will recognize samples of 2000s classics: She flips Cam’ron’s “Oh Boy” into a balmy love song on “Baby Boy,” recruits Chicago’s Tink to riff on Lil Wayne’s “Comfortable” on “Comfy,” and slows down a Kanye West beat circa 2010 on “POWER,” which includes the devastating burn, “Ain’t that a bitch? You was pandemic rich/That’s why you screaming, ‘Bring Trump back!’” Sweet moments crop up amid the A-1 smack talk, most touchingly on “Klarity,” a love song to her daughter born earlier in the year.
