STL Goes International in the Shut It Down Remix
While most artistes are probably on holiday winding down after a year of hardwork, top female rapper STL is far from taking a break from what she does best. Yesterday, the sassy rapper unveiled the remix of her hit song, “Shut It Down” featuring Kenya’s youthful rapper Xtatic, Ghana’s Tifanny and America’s Nitty Scott, MC.
All the three female rappers featured in the remix share three things in common; they are young, they are budding in their music career and are all versatile. If you remember well, Tifanny is the girl in the club-banger “Azonto” and her voice just makes “Shut It Down” worth listening to. On the other hand, Xtatic, fresh from releasing her hard-hitting hip hop video, “Hit ‘Em Up”, brings her ill lyrics to this song giving it a very tight flow.
Nitty Scott, MC, is little known to the Kenyan audience however her record speaks loads for her. She describes herself as “one of the few females creating her own lane in progressive hip-hop, a new school fly girl who isn’t afraid to get down with the cypher”. She, like Xtatic and Tifanny does not disappoint in the delivery. And then of course in comes STL who needs no introduction for her reputation in music is one of a kind.
In a nutshell, these girls went in hard on this remix. I give it 8.5/10. Listen to the song below;
