Type Shit (feat. Travis Scott & Playboi Carti)
Metro Boomin & Future
Pure kinetic energy rendered in sound — this track strips everything back to texture and momentum, Metro Boomin building a beat that exists primarily as a delivery system for physical sensation. The 808s are enormous and unhurried, the synth tones almost alien, creating an atmosphere that sits somewhere between luxury and threat. Travis Scott's contribution is characteristically melodic and blurred at the edges, his voice processed into something between a vocal and an instrument. Playboi Carti injects bursts of frantic energy that contrast with the surrounding cool. The lyrics are intentionally surface-level — this is rap that prioritizes feel over meaning, where the sound of the words matters more than their content. Culturally, it represents the aesthetic wing of Atlanta rap at its most self-referential and confident. This is a song for arriving somewhere — a party, a venue, a moment where you want the entrance to register.
