DC The Don has released "Yellow," a single featuring Sajkeena and the underground artist midwxst, dated August 28 and filed under his DC FRIDAYS 3 project.
The sound is the one he has been working for years. HotNewHipHop describes it as a mix of rock and SoundCloud rap that still lands, with Sajkeena's vocals sitting over an instrumental built on atmosphere and plucky guitar chords.
The guest list is not an accident either. He and midwxst have circled each other repeatedly, and the outlet's read is that the three of them have real chemistry, with midwxst strong on his section of the track.
The song itself is a late-night one, built around a phone call that does not need to be about anything, a ride in the back of a friend's car and a night that gets away from everyone in it.
Reaction has been mixed rather than glowing, with readers rating it 2.75 out of 5 in its first days. The site's framing is that DC The Don has held on to a cult fanbase for a reason, and that songs like this are it.
The single is logged on the release calendar with the rest of the hip-hop autumn, a stretch that has also brought an announcement from Rio Da Yung OG.
