"Stoopid" (stylized in all caps) is a song by American rapper 6ix9ine featuring American rapper Bobby Shmurda. It was produced by Tay Keith, and released commercially on October 5, 2018, as a single from his debut studio album Dummy Boy. It peaked at number 25 on the US Billboard Hot 100,[1] and was certified platinum by the RIAA.
Lyrics and composition
[edit]"Stoopid" features a trap beat and a siren.[2] Bobby Shmurda's verse is rapped over a phone due to him being imprisoned at the time of the collaboration with 6ix9ine.[3] In the song, 6ix9ine insults radio personality Ebro Darden, saying, "That nigga Ebro, he a bitch/Just another old nigga on a young nigga dick". The lyrics were in response to a feud the two had been engaged in.[4]
Critical reception
[edit]The song received mixed reviews from outlets. Although praising the "evil charm" of the song, Craig Jenkins of Vulture felt that it "cannibaliz[ed] flows and jokes from older 6ix9ine songs".[2] Writing for Consequence of Sound, Wren Graves praised Bobby Shmurda's verse.[3] Contrary to Graves' praise, Rolling Stone's Mose Reeves found Shmurda's verse "Hissy" and "Literally phoned in".[5] Reviewing Dummy Boy for HipHopDX, Kyle Eustice called the song a "banger that seemingly sets a rowdy tone for the rest of the 34-minute effort", but added that it set up the listener for disappointment.[6]
Music video
[edit]The music video was released the same day as the song's release. Directed by Trifedrew, William Asher and TheDonCanon of Figure Eight Creative Group, the video features 6ix9ine driving through a desert in a rainbow colored Ferrari and riding roller coasters at IMG Worlds of Adventure in Dubai.[7]
