Although the likes of Olamide, Lil Kesh, and Zlatan have paved the way for Bella Shmurda to thrive across different societal classes, he has continued to push past boundaries with hits that are the key to mainstream dominance. Following and still roiling in the huge success that is Cash App, a song that appraises cybercrime, Bella Shmurda returns with a typical follow-up, Rush, an ode to the lifestyle his little time in the sun has afforded him.
Money, fame, foes, and success are now easy to come by for Shmurda, and coming from where he was bred, he has attracted a myriad of foes, all of whom he addresses on the synthesized flavored single. He branches out with weighty admonishments for his listeners speaking to his lyrical dexterity. A combination of these focal points, coupled with the fast-paced instrumentals makes Rush a potential hit.
It’s been a year since Bella Shmurda released High Tension, his slow-burning debut and as a metric of success, Rush just goes to show the industry isn’t moved by showy debuts but unforgettable singles.
