Tizzy Stackz, Ching, LB Spiffy | ‘Cold Days’
Rap Fiesta fans are you hungry? I hope so, because I have for you today a quick 3 piece with no need for the soda. “Cold Days” is an inspiring, melodic product of a Tizzy Stackz, Ching, and LB Spiffy collaboration, satisfying listeners on all fronts. These three talented artists display seamless chemistry, both with each other and with the guitar-anchored production. The message is both prevalent and powerful. If you’re dealing with adversity, or encompassed by nostalgia simply remembering a better time, “Cold Days” is your new fight song.
“I’m just tryna stack my money everyday it’s on repeat,
I can’t ask no one for favors Imma get up on my feet,
Go hard for who I love make sure everybody eat,
I still am who I am but I just been a better me.”
Your life is what you make it, not a product of any external circumstance. Put your head down, tackle each day as it comes, and take what you want from life; it isn’t going to be handed to you. Don’t change who you are; evolve. That’s Ching fitting a Ted Talk into four bars in his signature edgy, bubble-gum vocals.
Tizzy Stackz is a straight up superstar in the making. Tizzy has that soulful, cant-miss voice that hits you right in the heart. He’s going to be an industry hitmaker, featured on countless hooks, with equally impressive individual accomplishments. His voice is unmistakable, laced with that pure, unadulterated emotion that you just can’t fake.
LB Spiffy is an interesting case. He seems to be in a more experimental phase, and honestly I have no idea what that second verse was. His voice, however, is new-bill fresh, the kind that transitions beautifully to a record. In other words: insta-radio-ready. If his Weezy-esque first verse is any indication, LB has massive potential, the question is only what direction he wants to take to actualize it.
An American poet named Maya Angelou once said:
“At the end of the day people won’t remember what you said or did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
That’s exactly what “Cold Days” does: it makes you feel, and that is why I have an enormous amount of respect for these three lyrically conscious artists.
