Unsigned Richmond rapper D. Bledsoe dropped a number of tracks lastweek, but the one that jams the hardest is his own flip of Future’s "Move That Dope." Mike Will Made It’s beat is dope as fuck on its own with that 8-bit blowout sound, but D. Bledsoe blesses it with East Bay styling to take it to that next level. The original is really more of a posse cut without much breaking up each verse. This version is all juiced up by actually having a hook that’s D. Bledsoe championing the shit out of himself and throwing in a few crucial adlibs. He speeds up the delivery appropriately to make his version go harder than the original. This is really a great exercise in how to do a properly jack a beat; after seeing how hard he flipped it, the original is now too subdued to even listen to anymore. Considering the lineup on the original, that’s an impressive feat on its own.
