Bktherula and Ski Mask The Slump God set the mood with Through 2 U
It’s Friday so you already know it’s all about the hard-hitting new tunes. Look no further than Bktherula and Ski Mask The Slump God coming through on their new ‘Through 2 U’ anthem.
Bktherula and Ski Mask’s Through 2 U hits different
From the start, the song hits hard and is a non-stop audio adrenaline rush. Bk holds it down from start to finish with Slump jumping into mix a few bars in.
Today, Atlanta’s favorite rage rapper Bktherula unveils a booming new take on “Through 2 U,” featuring South Florida’s Ski Mask the Slump God. A certified heater, “Through 2 U'' — a highlight from 2021’s Love Black project — was already Bk at her finest. This time, the 19-year-old’s thrashing, assertive blitzes meet Ski Mask’s breakneck flow over the rattling PerryVsTheWrld-produced beat.
A fitting feature, Ski Mask’s brazen, unfiltered contribution pairs effortlessly with Bk’s equally commanding delivery. After comparing himself to an owl (“hoo you?”), the featured artist doubles down on the amusing wordplay: “In real life I’m a glitch, in real life your shit lag.” The thunderous new version arrives on the heels of the collaborators’ performances at the Lyrical Lemonade Summer Smash festival in Chicago, an annual beacon of rap’s rising talent.
More and more Bktherula fire
Earlier in the year, Bk came through with some fire tunes. She delivered her Coupe/Keep da K project to the masses.
“Through 2 U” follows Bk’s re-emergence earlier this year with a velvety two-pack release “Coupe/Keep da K” — a gift to fans eagerly awaiting her follow up to last year’s psychedelic and color-drenched Love Black album. The twofer, which arrived alongside a dreamy, hallucinogenic visual for “Coupe”, premiered on Revolt in March.
The high-powered rework of “Through 2 U” is further proof that Bk is more than willing to push against the boundaries of mainstream hip-hop. Her consistently unconventional and neoteric style has essentially catapulted her into the spotlight. With support from Ski Mask the Slump God, Bk’s knack for creating exciting new musical worlds has never been more apparent.
