Shy Glizzy Bosses Up in His New 'Congratulations' Video

Earlier this year, Shy Glizzy changed his name to Jefe, but soon after, he realized that was silly, and now he’s back to his old, amazing moniker. Today (March 23), he drops off his new video for “Congratulations” off his January EP The World Is Yours. Watch the visual below.

The video is standard rap flick fare—money, booze, bitches, etc.—but the song itself, produced by Balik, is one of the highlights off the D.C. rapper’s last tape.

Young Jefe 2 was by far one of the best rap projects to drop in 2016, and perhaps the best piece of work in Glizzy’s catalog. It weighed more on the side of hook-heavy anthems instead of narrative-driven songs, but the glittering production and near-flawless sequencing make it a phenomenal listen from front to back.

Peep the video below, and if you missed it, check out our list of deep Glizzy cuts that have been slept-on.
