Today, Atlanta's own Skooly has delivered his latest project BAcCWArdFeELiNgS, which features the likes of Kidd, 2 Chainz, and Young Thug. And while the project is full of bangers, it's hard to resist a verse from the almighty 2 Chainz, especially when he has been killing everything he's touched all year. "Swagger" finds both rappers spitting high-octane verses over a trap-instrumental, and Skooly's fierce energy may literally startle you if you're not prepared. As for the song's subject matter, you can correctly infer a fair amount of braggadocio from the title alone. After all, it is Atlanta, where the sauce flows in abundance. 

While Skooly certainly holds it down, 2 Chainz once again murders his feature with some hilariously badass bars. "I'm on my wave again, may never shave again," raps Tity Boy, "yeah it's the alien, I'm goin' ape again." While simple on paper, 2 Chainz' bars have a way of coming to life in practice, and the Atlanta once again proves himself a formidable (and slept on) force in the game. 

Quotable Lyrics

This is my life, I'ma live it
Fill it up, lock it, and seal it
I rep bottoms up to the ceiling
You can't spend the night, don't be stealing
I'm on my wave again
May never shave again
Yeah it's the alien, I'm goin' ape again
