Jimmy Wopo is next up out of Pittsburgh. The rapper spent some time incarcerated earlier in the year but once he came out, he was back in go mode. He immediately got back into the studio and was in grind mode ever since. He's a promising voice out of Pittsburgh right now and has alsl the potential in the world to blow up. In the past few months, he's dropped some fire singles and an exceptional mixtape in October and it doesn't look like he's stopping at that. Today, he returns with his latest single, "50/50."

Wopo's latest single is hard hitting and menacing. While the song's production features a bouncy string and key progression and heavy drums in the back of it, it's definitely a fire joint. Wopo differentiates the real and the fake on this single, calling out anyone who claims to be "100" as "50/50." He comes through with ferocity in his voice throughout it and showcases the same energy in the video. The video features Wopo flexing cash from the trap to the parks in Pittsburgh. While the song has a funky rhythm to it, the video shares a similar wildness. He throws his dough up and has him homie flashing his gun all while headbanging and turning up.

For Wopo, it's another dope effort from him. This year, he dropped off two different mixtapes, Jordan Kobe  and Back Against the WallThe former was a breakthrough for Wopo and helped him garner some well deserved attention to his talents. The latter served as a homecoming after he spent 60 days behind bars for violating probation. Wopo's steady keeping himself busy these days and with 2018 coming soon, he's bound to get up to some big things.

Quotable Lyrics
These niggas dumb, Imma play it smart
Crawl up through the grass, I won't even walk
Finna jump out on your ass once I fuckin' park
Pussy niggas scared, I could hear your heart
