mo city flexologist Archives - New Hip Hop News

The end of August was a great time for Travis Scott fans. After 10 long years, the Houston rapper would finally put DAYS BEFORE RODEO onto streaming platforms. This was something that his supporters had been hoping would happen for quite a while. When he did reissue it, though, he made sure to do it in a big way. Instead of just giving people the mixtape, he released vinyl and CD copies, apparel, bundles, as well as multiple deluxe versions. Out of the six editions, the first one may go down as the most treasured. Only available for a limited time, Scott dug up some fan-favorite unreleased cuts such as “Serenade”, “Yeah Yeah”, “Too Many Chances”, and “Whole Lots Changed”. However, there was a fifth that was included and that was “Mo City Flexologist”.

It’s probably the most unheard of one of the original bunch, but it might be the best of them. From the hungry rapping to the short but catchy chorus, Scott had everything working on this cut. The grand scale of the instrumental is also another key reason “Mo City Flexologist” sticks out in a very good way. It’s also got a lot of cool foundational elements to what would be carried over into Scott’s other projects. Even, though we are just about a month removed from that amazing run, he’s still looking to bring the rage. HipHopnMore has just made it known that a “Mo City Flexologist” music video is out now, which you can see below. It comes out of nowhere once again, but it might be here to help celebrate DBR finally going number one on the Billboard Hot 200 chart.

Getting DAYS BEFORE RODEO on streaming is already a win, but also receiving a deluxe version with extra tracks is even better. Travis Scott revealed that this was going to be a real possibility when he announced the rerelease on his social media. When he did, the Houston, Texas artist said that it would be a “couple”. However, he went above and beyond, delivering five of them. Four of them are tracks that have been on the internet in some capacity. But Travis Scott was able to keep “Mo City Flexologist” under wraps, for the most part.

According to Genius, it got two separate previews, once on May 27, 2014, and again on the 28. Additionally, online forums claim that the instrumental was sold to another rapper. Thankfully, we now know that Travis Scott had “Mo City Flexologist” in his clutches still. The track can only be heard if you buy the DIGITAL DELUXE on his website for $4.99. However, fans are making sure everyone has a chance to hear it, as platforms like YouTube already have the audio files. As for how the song sounds, it’s quite incredible. Scott and Honorable C.N.O.T.E. cooked up an equally hype, dark, and woozy cut. It has a stadium-like feel to instrumental and Scott’s short but effective auto-crooned chorus add an extra hypnotic element. Additionally, the flows he rocks on the verses display his natural knack for creating sticky patterns. It has all of the quintessential elements of what makes Travis Scott tick in all the best ways.

“Mo City Flexologist” – Travis Scott

Quotable Lyrics:

Run back them simmers I caught through the night
I done dirtied the Sprite, I done crushed up the ice
Who knew LaFlame make it bigger than life?
On the come up, I had to find faith through the lights (Lit)
How to book me? They gotta go bigger the price
Rock a kilo of gold just to dip it in ice
