Don’t ask WHYTRI how he landed a Chandler collab; he just did it, it was hard. The Boston hip-hop futurist glides into the club with his new track “LIGHTS DOWN SHAWTY!”, which features the Virginia rapper who provided TikTok with some of the year’s most infectious audio. (You know the one: The flat-spoken “don’t ask me how I did it, I just did it, it was hard” paired with some caption about passing chemistry or finding a girlfriend).
The pulsing track counters WHYTRI’s low growls and liquid flow with Chandler’s signature stiff bars, made famous on his March tune “NOTHIN’ TO IT.” As their styles collide, “LIGHTS DOWN SHAWTY!” becomes an exercise in contrast, buffed by towering bass that tugs the song towards the nearest dance floor.
