Smino just dropped a new freestyle entitled Smi, Myself, and I, and it’s a Beyoncé-inspired bop fasho!
The track is already a classic, with Smino rapping over Beyoncé’s iconic “Me, Myself, and I” beat. Smino rhymes and sings his way through an impressive 2-minute display of lyrical dexterity.
He recently went to Twitter and dropped the visual for the seemingly impromptu freestyle.
Around a minute and ten seconds or so, Smino breaks the beat and switches up his flow. At this point, he delivers his bars in a pentameter-style cadence, resulting in an effortless flow of wordplay.
The title of the freestyle, Smi, Myself, and I, is a witty play on words with his name being Smino, and the sample being of Beyoncé’s.
Smino’s delivery carries a sense of confidence and charisma that makes the track stand out. He touches on topics such as his past, identity, and self-love, allowing a deeper interpretation of the track.
Overall, Smi, Myself, and I is an impressive display of lyrical skill and creative wordplay. But the ending is what drives this track home.
“Stuck with her, f*ck with her, ‘cause she come home and makes that Neck. Bones. Greens. Corn. What I want. When I get home.”
Smino — “Smi, Myself, and I”
Smino follows the same melody as the original song when the song hits the bridge, and the vocalists understand the assignment.
This drop is just a sample of what’s to come on Smino’s upcoming mixtape, S.A.D 2, set to drop in April.
