Video: Comethazine – “Glide Freestyle”

The Alamo Records Signee Shares Another New Single In the Wake of His Debut Album Bawskee 3.5

Critical Praise:

2019 XXL Freshman

“St. Louis teen Comethazine gave rap a shot, and got millions of streams in return. As his December 2017 video ‘Piped Up’ inches closer to 3 million views, it seems the young rapper made the right choice to leave the regular nine-to-five life behind” – XXL

“Comethazine is one of the most buzzing artists in the hip-hop world” – HotNewHipHop

The Video:

Known for his high-energy trap and singular focus on growing his bankroll, Comethazine is not a rapper to be trifled with. Unflappably showing off his life of luxury, the 2019 XXL Freshman shares “Glide Freestyle,” his latest video. Freestyling atop a buzzing beat by ChildBoy, the Alamo Records rapper brags about his single-minded pursuit of illicit gains: “Count some cash, nab some masks, count some cash, number one business plan.” In the video, Comethazine rocks a bright orange Bawskee hoodie, a color to match his Lambo, and takes a fully-clothed swim in his California mansion. Premiered over the weekend with over 500k views to date, “Glide Freestyle” is the artist’s latest single to drop in the wake of Bawskee 3.5, Comethazine’s debut album.

Released in June, Bawskee 3.5 debuted at #53 on the Billboard 200 and generating over 25 million streams across platforms in its first week of release, peaking in the Apple Music all-genre top 5 during its release weekend. The album dropped shortly after Comethazine’s ascension to the 2019 XXL Freshman List. With hundreds of millions of streams across all platforms, more than 3.8 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and an Instagram following that tops 1.4 million, Comethazine is just getting started.

The Background:

Born Frank Childress in 1998, St. Louis-native Comethazine was a lean-loving high-school dropout. Influenced by Nipsey Hussle, Odd Future, Lil B, and Chief Keef, he started rapping in 2015. He soon discovered that his initial output was not as well received as party-oriented cloud rap, so he switched angles and scored a pair of local underground hits with “Run It” and “Hella Choppers.” The Aloe Vera EP landed in 2016, which resulted in a late-2017 deal with Alamo Records. A slew of short singles followed, including “Deathwish,” “Piped Up,” “Oowee,” and “Hero.” “Bands” became a viral hit, landing on his first full-length, Bawskee, which debuted on the Billboard 200 upon its release in 2018.
