Listen to Chief Keef’s New ‘Can You Be My Friend’
Chief Keef is trying something different. Today, we get “Can You Be My Friend,” a new track from the Chicago spitta, which is definitely showing his softer side.
Familiar face Young Chop drops the instrumental for the song, which sounds like its intent was to have a Caribbean vibe. The Glo Gang rhymer seems to offer his best Drake impression on the dance song, as he raps about a young lady who has caught his eye.
“Bang, I know you don’t want no scrub/Baby I’ma boss, You should love that in me/She’s like, “But my best friend was like, baby he’s a dog/He was tryna holla at me,” he raps on the intro, remixing the chorus to TLC’s “No Scrubs.”
He continues caking into the verses, rapping, “She take it slow then she wine it up/I’m showing love but that’s not enough/Girl you look fine like wine/Loan me some of your time/Tell me can you be my friend/I would like to tell you who I am/Baby will you take me for who I am/I’ma hold the deal up on my end/Bang, bang.”
Maybe the Windy City rapper is trying to capture the Top 40 crowd.
In related news, Sosa recently fell off a stage during a show in Grand Rapids, Mich. He later laughed off the moment on Instagram, captioning a video of his slip, “Funniest shit In Years.”
