It seems like Bobby Shmurda‘s buzz is threatening to fizzle out as the wait for new music continues. On Monday (October 18), Bobby took to his Instagram to tease his second single since returning home from prison — tentatively titled “Trapping Is a Sport” — and many fans aren’t feeling it.
The Instagram post shows a snippet from the official music video with Bobby Shmurda rapping in an empty mansion and on a speedboat with bikini-clad women. The 27-year-old seems to be rapping about threesomes and trapping, but it doesn’t sound like a usual record from the Brooklyn rap star.
“Trappin is a sport yea yea nd she call me lil daddy,” Bobby wrote in the caption of his post.
Fans took notice of his change in sound and were quick to critique everything else about the video. The “Hot N-gga” rapper’s dance moves were one of the main talking points, though. Many weren’t feeling how Bobby was in one of the scenes.
“Prison has got this man twerking to music videos now,” one fan wrote in the comment section, while another person said, “Y u keep shakin ur hips like that b.”
A different fan even compared Bobby Shmurda to Lil Nas X for his shirtless moves in the video. “Lil Nas X 2.0,” they said.
Not all the reactions to the video were negative, though. Busta Rhymes showed his support by leaving four crown emojis in the comment section while fellow East Flatbush, Brooklyn rapper Fetty Luciano urged Bobby to “keep going” while posting four fire emojis.
Fans must have forgotten that Bobby Shmurda has busted dance moves before, such as in the video for his 2014 breakout hit “Hot N-gga,” as well as at the end of his video for his first comeback single, ““No Time For Sleep (Freestyle).”
Bobby Shmurda Explains Why Fans Have To Wait For New Music
As if the dancing wasn’t enough, Bobby Shmurda has also been catching flack on social media for taking his time releasing new music. Fans have been groaning over the fact he’s taken so long, but Bobby explained the reason for it in an Instagram post in August.
“I’m Bizzy running round needed some time to breathe they had me locked up In the pins doing 23,” he wrote.
He was dancing EXACTLY like this before jail in the ‘Bobby Bitch’ video…where was the outrage then?
Exactly..he was SuS way before he went to prison. This generation of artist are all gay AF nowadays because that’s what socially acceptable to them and what sells. He was never considered talented in my book, he was an overhyped kid who took his opportunity to get out of the hood and squandered it and and ended up doing time in prison. He’s still rich and still gets to wear gay clothes and dance around like a homo *reminds me of 90’s Puff Daddy* so he don’t give a f**k.
That’s cuz too many n***** couldn’t wait for him to hit the yard in prison so they could have their own Bobby Bitch and have him doing the Shmurda dance for them every night, that’s why.*Pause***Now Entering Pause Pregnancy**
Not a first time, either. Spent too much time in jail
This crop of cRappers are all AssedOut. I’ve never been more ashamed to be a fan of hip hop in my life then right now. These dudes are wack,gay, skinny jean wearing drama queens that can’t even put together a proper 16 or even know what creativity is anymore? Just a bunch of gay dude copying each other and calling it original. What happened to having your own style and sound?
