Why do I get the feeling Ty Dolla $ign and YG had Kodak Black looking like Eddie Murphy in “Trading Places” while recording this track?

Ty Dolla $ign is gearing up for his next album, Tycoon, after having to adjust plans due to external complications, including Kanye West’s antics. The first single, “SMILE BODY PRETTY FACE” featuring YG and Kodak Black, gives a glimpse of the new direction, though it’s far from conventional.

The track kicks off with a grand, almost cinematic intro before launching into a bouncy, LA dance-inspired beat. Ty and Kodak take turns in an unusual sing-off, complimenting women in ways that mix romance with bluntness. Ty eventually dominates the verse with a passionate performance, focusing on the balance of emotional and physical love.

Kodak Black pops in sporadically, his delivery unpredictable and raw, adding a chaotic energy that contrasts with Ty’s smoother flow. YG closes the track with a sly, aggressive verse, pushing the lyrics into more provocative territory with references to lust and indulgence.

Overall, “SBPF” is unorthodox in its structure and collaborators. Somehow, the s**t works, though.
