ArrDee has fired shots at numerous figures in the UK rap scene on his new solo single ‘If The Shoe Fits’ – listen belowLast week, the Brighton rapper drew inspiration from the ongoing rap battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar and dropped his own diss track.
The song samples ‘Like That’ – the Metro Boomin-produced song in which the latter ignited his feud against the OVO rapper. In a surprise release, ArrDee used the same beat to also go after many of his peers who “can’t hit the bigger market“.In the intro, the 21-year-old sampled a clip of music manager Bouncer asking: “Who is the last artist that breakthrough?
When I say breakthrough, I’m talking about on the levels as ArrDee – who was the last ArrDee?”“Nobody’s done shit since me/ The whole scene’s swimming up shit’s creek, where the fuck are all the newcomers?,” ArrDee spits in the opening lines. “I told them not to take the piss, I took the piss, came here to do numbers/ And now, they all have one hit and quit, new kids can’t last new summers.”He mocks UK drill newcomer Nemzzz because his “hits ain’t charting” and also takes a jab at nostalgic rapper Strandz for having one charting song (2023’s ‘Us Against The World’) “but we knew it wasn’t lasting“.ArrDee claims that, after Central Cee blew up overseas, the UK rap scene “got scared ’cause they’re talentless” and believes many need a “banger and a sound to work from” – suggesting most of the UK is full of copycat rappers.He promises: “I’m a put ’em on the spot/ If I gotta send shots to wake ’em up again, I’m the alarm clock.”There is a moment in the song where ArrDee calls out an unknown rapper, whom many believe to be Digga D.
