“Insane reach”- Fans Shower Praises as 070 Shake Takes a Go at Ye’s ‘Mercy’ Flow, 8 Years After Being Co-signed With Him

Published 11/15/2024, 8:06 PM EST

A rule of the music industry often unspoken yet painfully evident in many acceptance speeches is that success belongs as much to the scouter as it does to the artist. While this may have landed in awkward on-stage moments where the ego tussle between the two is clearly visible, in the case of Ye and 070 Shake, it only translates to awe-inducing music. 

070 Shake co-signed with Ye back when he was known as Kanye West in 2016, much like Travis Scott and several other artists in the industry keep Ye on a high pedestal. However, it seems it is not just the rapper she holds in high regard but also his impressive flow in 'Mercy' which she impersonated on 'What's Wrong With Me' from the album 'Petrichor'.

The rapper has, in the past, worked with the Atlanta rapper a couple of times, each time delivering a hit to be remembered. While those earlier features on Ye's track might have carried intentions of getting their claim to fame, the 'Mercy' flow impersonation is purely a work of art.

If Hollywood is bricks, then the music industry is bones, and it is especially the case if you are signed with an artist as legendary as Ye, taking the already skyscraper-esque standards even higher. However, through sheer talent 070 Shake has managed to shake it all, and the results could not be merrier as even Ye fans stand impressed with her impersonation of one of his iconic flows.

From how they had "insane reach" to labeling 'Petrichor' as the album of the year, which is a remark not even Ye himself has earned this year, fans did not hold back on the praises.
