DDG is showing off a type of tone that he doesn't tap into all that often. However, it goes over well and displays his versatility.

DDG is known for his braggadocious pop rap and trap rap cuts. Usually, they are delivered with a vibey club tone, though. But on his newest single, "Tight End," the Michigan native is sporting a different and colder flow that he doesn't tap into all that often.

The result is a cutthroat listening experience as he casually imposes his will on his competition and fake friends. "I like to be with women, I don't f*ck with n****s / If you not my homie, I don't speak or say wassup to n****s / I don't do the back and forth, I'm just gon' slump the n****," he raps on the chorus.

Produced by 10Fifty and Josh Taylor, they add to the chilling tone with haunting synths and rumbling bass. It's a fairly minimal instrumental but it works out tremendously and captures the vibe DDG is shooting for.

The brief banger arrives after another viral track in "That's My Ball" as well as his latest album, blame the chat. Created with the help of his streaming viewers, the project sported his most stacked feature list to date. BIA, Ty Dolla $ign, DaBaby, Offset, Queen Naija, and Wiz Khalifa, were just a few marquee names to appear.

DDG "Tight End"

Quotable Lyrics:

Still movin' 'round the city like a YN, I like that lil' fine sh*t that you posted, let me buy in
Take her shoppin' all the stores around this high-end, she love when I land back in Michigan, no tight end
Buyin' flights across the state, I got her landin' late
I'm workin' hard as sh*t, now shorty pissed 'cause I done missed a date
Mother Nature hatin' on me, I just get the base
I buzz her at the gate, she haven't ate, you know that neck was great
