Kenny Mason is back. The rapper has returned to the scene with his first solo release since 9.

Entitled "HOODRAT," the first solo single from Mason since the album's release finds the rapper reflecting on his come-up and now new lifestyle.

"I know a few rugrats, ridin' 'round with that Tommy gun / I been 'round them hoodrats, I know I'm my mama's son / Straighten up when that money come / It spread like Omicron / My n*gga in chain gang watchin' anime, he at comic-con," he spits on the chorus over a FearDorian-produced beat, later asserting "I don't trust a f*ckin' soul, I take that heat to sleep."

An ethereal vocal sample carries the beat, offering a captivating juxtaposition between Mason's bars and the softer backing track.

When we sat down with the rapper earlier this year, he told us that his sound is "the full human spectrum."

"It supersedes genre and is more about mood."

The song arrives just ahead of the rappers performance at Tyler, the Creator's tenth Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival next weekend. An accompanying music video also lands alongside it.
