Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description
"Interlude (Naww G Diss)” is a diss track that seems out of place in Naww G's album, but it serves a greater purpose. The track is performed by 46SWIN, who is also the mixing and mastering engineer of Naww G's album. The song is produced by 46SWIN, who is also the mixing and mastering engineer of Naww G's album, and features vocals by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson for added color. The track samples the song "Shook Ones Pt. II" by Mobb Deep. In the song, 46SWIN calls out Naww G for his violent music and lack of authenticity, stating that he is not a gangster but a programmer with subpar rap skills. The diss track is meant to serve as a wakeup call for Naww G to be true to himself and make music from the heart. The song opens with 46SWIN questioning Naww G's credibility as a gangster and calling him out for his mediocre rap skills. He then compares Naww G's coding to his music, stating that it doesn't add up and that he will trash him with the control + delete command. 46SWIN also questions Naww G's affiliation with Brooklyn and his lack of standing in his own hometown of Hempstead. The diss track also takes a personal turn, with 46SWIN bringing up Naww G's visits to Brooklyn and his lack of connection to the borough. He warns Naww G to keep his body over there and not to rep his town in his borough. 46SWIN then proceeds to threaten Naww G, claiming that he crafted the song in the witching hours and that he is ready to chop off his head with a cutlass while wearing a white hockey mask. The song ends with 46SWIN telling Naww G to humble himself and be true to his roots. He reminds him that anyone can get touched and that today it happens to be him. The diss track serves as a reminder to other rappers to be true to themselves and make music from the heart, as Naww G proceeds to do on the rest of the album.
