While Kevin Gates might make headlines for his unusual claims (i.e. starting a car battery with his bare hands), it’s hard to deny how good his music is. The rapper continues to tease the deluxe edition of Khaza, which he announced last year. There hasn’t been a release date set. Still, he’s continued to keep a string of releases on deck to feed his loyal and dedicated fanbase.
This week, the rapper returned with his latest single, “Do It Again.” Release via YouTube, the rapper’s latest offering finds his powerful presence backed by equally dominant production as he brings fans through a journey of his come-up. Kevin Gates takes it back to Louisiana Ave., reflecting on loyalty and trust in the streets and his personal relationship. It’s another record that showcases the rapper’s consistency that he’s carried through his decade-plus career.
Kevin Gates Unleashes “Do It Again”
Since the beginning of 2023, Kevin Gates has kept his foot on the gas with a number of excellent singles. In February, he dropped off “Breakfast,” a record that seemingly confirmed his reconciliation with Dreka Gates. She also co-stars in the music video. Then, he dropped off records like “Pages” and “Trying To Forgive.” He also came through with some excellent collabs. He teamed up with T.I. on their long-awaited joint effort, “Active.” Most recently, he joined forces with NLE Choppa on “HABITS,” off of Cottonwood.
Kevin Gates released Khaza in 2022, marking his first full-length studio album since 2019’s I’m Him. However, between that three-year gap, he delivered shared a slew of music including Only The Generals Pt. II. Hopefully, it won’t be long until Gates comes through with either the deluxe edition of his 2022 or a brand new project altogether. Check out his single, “Do It Again” above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.
Quotable Lyrics
I remember when I met Black Ray, you n***as was scared of him
I was up the road when Black Roy got changed, he was a head boss
And the don’t know how you dealing with the pain, remember you bred for it
And I’m a general, Bread Winner gang, and planing to bled for it
