The only thing that probably matters to Don Toliver is that he is going to be a new father really soon. Kali Uchis is pregnant, and sometime this year, she is expected to deliver the Houston native’s first child. As someone who just had his first child, my advice to him is to get as much sleep as he can now and get everything that a baby can pick up with their fingers out of the way. Anywho, today, Don returned to the music scene with an edgy new single called “Bandit.” In the music video to it, you get to see his baby mama and unborn baby.

Don Toliver sounds as reckless as he’s ever sounded in “Bandit.” In his verses in the song, he talks about popping pills, sipping on wock, getting it in with women who are more than dime pieces, and choosing violence whenever he needs to. He also mentions that his competition ain’t touching him like the Atlanta Hawks weren’t touching Luka when he scored 70 points on them.

As much as I like the s**t-talking and reckless lyrics we get out of Don in this track, it’s actually the production that caught my attention the most. It’s edgy and merges contemporary hip-hop vibes with traditional rock vibes. I also really enjoy the Tame Impala sample that we get in it.

Artists and athletes often experience an increase in productivity when they become parents. I anticipate that Don Toliver will elevate his output to another level.
