Young MA wants more spitters, less funny-looking rappers.
Not too long ago, The Shade Room shared a video of Young MA rapping to the well-known Gucci Mane and Migos song (‘I Get the Bag’). Aside from her noticeable weight loss, the Brooklyn rapper keeps it New York with mentions of her ‘constructs’ or fresh wheat Timberland boots. Personally, I like the way she started it off. By the end, it starts to change up. Nonetheless, the last words in the video are funny or offensive—depending on where you stand. It makes me want to hear more from her now. Check out the official four-minute freestyle video below.
