OG David James - Rigamortis Remix #OGFridayz (video)

What’s good everybody? Today’s forecast is taking a double back to yesterday’s (5/7/2021) Friday releases.

This week we saw, Oxnard born/Reno raised artist, OG David James drop his seventh installment of his popular #OGFridayz series. For episode 7, OG David James presents his take on what it would sound like if he was on, the ‘Section.80’ record, “Rigamortis” by Kendrick Lamar. In typical OG David James fashion, he switches from the hypnotizing melodies and brings back the textbook, technical lyricism that his listener’s gravitate towards. Off the jump, David starts the record much like the original then quickly begins to flip the lyrics. The verbal agility is a big factor in this remix’s appeal. As a die hard Kendrick fan, it is a bit hard to hear other artists on a record Kendrick knowingly bodied. The refreshing part about David’s rendition is that he is able to keep up with the quick paced Sounwave & Willie B production.

“But she ain’t being subordinate, I ain’t even recorded yet. Baby looking so bored and shit. Way we son-ing these rappers, I probably should start orphanage. Overall I’m attacking the acronym, sounding accurate. Boy this shit is immaculate. AK got an attachment and I ain’t wearing no mask and I’m reading you like a pamphlet.”

Do not let the new age vibes fool you, this remix reminds any newer listeners of OG David James that he is a product of a time where lyrics really mattered. It’s evident that David studied many of the greats as a music fan and was able to bring a niche sound that many cannot recreate. Every line contains multisyllabic rhymes and they transition very well between different rhyme schemes. Don’t let me hit you with all the spoilers though. Go give this one a view for yourself and let the bars speak to you. This one was filmed and edited by Angelo DePrater (IG: @AngeloDePrater).
