"G Walk" is a song by American rapper Lil Mosey. It was released on June 7,2019,as the first single from his second studio album Certified Hitmaker . The song features vocals from American singer Chris Brown and production from Royce David. [1] [2]
"G Walk" marks the first collaboration between Mosey and Brown,and comes after Mosey sampled Brown’s 2005 single “Yo (Excuse Me Miss)”for his 2018 track “Greet Her”. [3]
“G Walk”is a hip hop and trap track. Mosey delivers melodic verses in a low baritone. Vivid synths,speedy hi-hats and lush piano chords make up the instrumentals,building up the song to Chris Brown’s entrance at the middle. Rhymes like “Hop in the coupe goin’crazy”and “She see me whip a Mercedes”make up the hook,while Brown's feature completes the track by ending his latter half in high-scaled R&B vocals. [4]
Rap Up praised Brown's "smooth harmonies" and Mosey's "sing-song delivery to the braggadocious banger". [5] HotNewHipHop commented that "With a piano-driven beat and another catchy flow,Lil Mosey starts off the affair with a hook and the first verse. Midway through,Chris Brown can't contain himself as he jumps in for ad-lib duty before dropping his own verse. In his signature way,Breezy flawlessly flexes his vocals in a sing-rap sort of way,complementing Mosey's style and issuing him an important co-sign this early in his career." [6]
