Skilla Baby and G Herbo join forces for "B’cuz," a hard-hitting track that finds balance between street survival and newfound success. Over a brooding, bass-heavy beat, the two rappers trade verses like seasoned sparring partners, their distinct styles weaving together effortlessly. Herbo’s signature laid-back intensity contrasts with Skilla’s raw, Detroit-bred cadence, creating a dynamic that feels both authentic and urgent.
The lyrics are a masterclass in duality. Both artists flex the spoils of their grind while never letting listeners forget the paranoia that success can’t erase. “Don’t mean I ain’t paranoid just ‘cause I’m not in the hood,” Herbo spits on the hook, a reminder that distance from the trenches doesn’t mean freedom from its grip. “I’ve been trying to chill, but I still will get on some hood shit.” It’s survival instinct, sharpened by experience.
The John Wick references scattered throughout the track underscore the song's mood: smooth, stylish, but always one step away from chaos. Like the movie’s titular character, Skilla and Herbo move with precision, prepared for whatever comes next.
“B’cuz” it’s a testament to growth without forgetting your roots. It’s the sound of two artists navigating success with one foot still planted in the reality that made them.
