YG is having a big year thanks to the absolute banger that is his DJ Mustard-produced debut album My Krazy Life, but he’s not ready to rest on his laurels just yet. Yesterday the 24-year-old Compton rapper announced a new project set to be released on December 15: a short film with an accompanying soundtrack, both entitled Blame It on the Streets. YG co-wrote and stars in the film, which is said to explore the world he conveys in his music, and it will be screened in Los Angeles, New York City, and Atlanta prior to its official release. The accompanying soundtrack features nine tracks in total — six new, two remixes, and one live performance of “BPT.”
Now, at this point you’re probably asking yourself, “What exactly is YG telling me to blame on the streets?” Well, your guess is as good as mine, but that’s not going to keep me from guessing right here and now:
— Blame the fact that you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of your music library to listen to My Krazy Life on the streets
— Blame the fact that your neighbors called the cops on your raucous, Mustard-fueled party on the streets
— Blame the fact that the café you work at won’t let you bump My Krazy Life in the establishment during your shift because it’s not really the “vibe” they want on the streets
— Blame the fact that your dog keeps crying but you can’t figure out what exactly she wants, I mean, you just took her for a walk, like, 10 minutes ago on the streets on the streets.
I may have said that your guess is as good as mine a moment ago, but I can say pretty confidently that it’s probably one of those.
