Rap Life

Rap Life is home to hip-hop's heavy hitters and its vanguard—the songs that speak to the moment and define the culture today. This week, the playlist is headlined by “It Is What It Is,” a Big Sean and Gunna collaboration from Sean’s newly released album Better Me Than You. The Detroit MC seems to be on a mission for revenge across the track, spitting venomous bars like “Face all on the front page/I don't give a fuck about no backlash/I been backstabbed and laughed at/We gon' see who get the f****n' last laugh.” We don’t know who it was that aggravated him, but thank you! Listen to “It Is What It Is” on the Rap Life playlist, and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
