"Fuckin' with me could actually upgrade your life" promises Junglepussy on her slow-grooving, but viciously clever new single "They Know." Her confident flow is as sharp as the production and choruses are woozy. The track is a tutorial in the NYC rapper's signature, sultry Scorpio shade and self-ownership, as she casting off phonies and lame dudes, warning them with a wink that if they lose her: "I got a cat and she lives in my lap/ And you missing this ass/ Like OutKast ain't no coming back." Line after line hits, and her message is clear: people who don't appreciate or give Junglepussy what she needs can keep moving.
"They Know" is the rapper's first release since her recent album Jp3 , and is currently on tour, hitting NYC on October 19 at Elsewhere. Check out her incredible merch and listen below.
