This ain’t no chill poolside bop — this that gritty, sun-baked, block-knockin’ street anthem that rides like a drop-top with no brakes. Tone ain’t tryna be friendly — he sound like summer came early and brought heat waves straight outta the trenches.
Soon as the beat drop, you feel that bass hit your chest like a twelve-gauge. It’s cinematic and grimy, like Ridin’ through Oakland or Richmond wit’ all the windows down, heat on your lap, watchin’ every move. Afrikan Tone laces the beat with raw bar work, aggressive energy, and that authentic Bay Area hustle talk. He ain’t rapping — he pressin’. This ain’t for the TikTok crowd. It’s for them corners, them backstreets, them survival stories.
His delivery is sharp — turnt up, almost. Like every word is aimed, loaded, and fired. He talkin’ elevation, but not the glossy IG flex type — we talkin’ grind-mode, real-hustler elevation. And you can feel the hunger in every syllable.
This ain’t the kind of “summer” they sell in commercials. This the hood’s summer — sweat drippin’, police lurkin’, bottles crackin’, dreams flippin’. It’s survival music.
Afrikan Tone made a lane with this one. It’s gritty, bold, and unapologetic — like he got somethin’ to prove and zero patience left and with Rydah J Klyde completing the feature with the real chit chat,as they say. He ain’t sugarcoatin’ nothin’, and that’s why “Summer” hit hard.
Slide to iTunes, cop that “Summer” by Afrikan Tone ft Rydah J Klyde and let the block know what real pressure sounds like. This one ain’t for the weak. You will also love his entire music catalog its definitely many titles to ride to.
