CDQ continues to ride on the wave that has rolled in an assortment of street anthems this year. Displaying an unwavering love for making music that resonates from the corners of the streets and sometimes transcends social strata like his Kizz Daniel assisted single; Gbayi did, CDQ comes through again this month with a relatable manifesto titled Flex that will most definitely take the cake in any hustler’s collection of quotable lyrics.
The fast paced syncopated JayPizzle engineered track featuring lyrics built with street slangs inclined towards CDQ’s native language layered over textured keys, quick drums and invigorating guitar chords is a loose narrative of his desire to just “flex and bother nobody” and whether you’re from the streets or not, the dance inspiring record will resonate within you seeing as it preaches a universal message. It’s accompanying visuals shot in South Africa mirrors this message.
