Gaptoothv4mp: “Charge You Up!”
Hailing from Ypsilanti, Michigan (known to me as the hometown of BabyTron), Gaptoothv4mp has a SoundCloud page that could brighten your worst day. Every line in the warehouse's bubbly, rap feels like it should be followed by a double pink heart emoji, even when it's a little in love, like on personal favorite “Fairytale Boy.” Her latest single “Charge You Up!” is just as good: a hyper, club dance song with sped-up vocals and lyrics that suggest he's bored at home and dying to explore the world. “I feel like I'm trapped in a cage, so I'm walking around it,” she hiccupped. It would be melancholic if it didn't sound like the sonic equivalent of one Aliyah's Interlude outfit.
With artists releasing songs fast and furious, it's hard for the average hip-hop head to keep track of them all — no matter how well-rounded they are. That's why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.
