Kota the Friend - Pomegranate
By: Trevor Siebold IG/Twitter: @barelytrev
After the release of his debut album last year, Kota the Friend is making an early 2021 mark with the release of this single alongside his project, ‘Lyrics to GO Vol. 2.’ In my opinion, Kota is entirely in his bag on these songs, simply spitting free verses on songs under 2 minutes. It’s straight jazz-rap beats and crazy wordplay… all you could ask for!
‘Pomegranate’ gives us vibes of Saba’s ‘CARE FOR ME’ album cuts. Kota the Friend has such a distinct cadence and his delivery is so effortlessly smooth. It just makes me feel at ease, like everything’s going to be alright in the end.
This dude is never lacking in bars, that’s for sure. Give it a listen if you haven’t yet and watch your day get better instantly!
Lyrics That Stick:
“And trynna bring you down
That dollar made people flip
Like quarters”
