Successive

Successive is a single by Jetanie rapper Yahtzee released on 9th March 2018 for her upcoming album Chaotic Neutral. The song is a posse-cut, featuring rap verses from Pop Village, Flavia, Black Card and DJ Shoe. Yahtzee has stated that this song is her “official comeback”.

Background
Yahtzee teased the song on 8th November 2016 via a Facebook post, which included a image of her working in a studio with Flavia.

Yahtzee later confirmed a song titled Successive in an interview with TBA on 16th December 2017, and stated that she had produced the instrumental herself. She said ”People don’t like the fact that people don’t often write and produce their own stuff these days, so I thought producing the beat myself would help me stand out and show music critics that somebody actually still cares about doing that type of stuff these days.”

All of the featured rappers on the song, Pop Village, Flavia, Black Card and DJ Shoe, are young, new artists. Talking about making the collaboration, Yahtzee stated ”Pop Village, Black Card and Shoe are all new to the scene, so if they worked with a highly experienced MC like me, it would help them get places.” Everybody wrote their own verse, except for Black Card, whose verse was written by Flavia.

Yahtzee also stated that Successive is the first of three collaborations that she intends to release with Flavia in 2018.

Music video
The music video for the song premiered on Tidal on 8th March 2018, before being uploaded to Yahtzee’s YouTube channel on 10th March 2018. The video surpassed 2 million YouTube views in less than 4 hours.

Remix
The official remix features additional vocals from Viola and Zahgsoja, and does not feature Flavia due to it being marked as “Explicit” on iTunes.
