Carol City’s Phatz has stayed busy as of late. A couple months ago in late March, we featured his mixtape Palm Trees & Bomb Weed as our mixtape of the week. The release received a good amount of attention and praise locally, and Phatz even went on to release videos for a couple of the standout songs.
One of these was the hard-hitting, yet laid-back “Imma Mess,” produced by Tracy Brown and Vince the Prince. The beat itself is very hypnotic and extremely addicting, and would almost make any non-rapper want to become one. The lyrics, meanwhile, are built on a sing-song melody that describes “staying fresh,” cup of Henny at hand, admiring the presence of beautiful women.
Phatz rhymes in the first verse:
All black is the theme for the evenin’
A Couple goons, some bitches and a few heathens
Please believe ’em, why would I lie
Cell phone, paparazzi when I walk by….

We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If Miami New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
It’s a good chill-back-and-sip-a-drink type of song. Phatz, as always, shows his braggadocious flows over great production, and a completely original song. While nothing is really thought-provoking on this one, that shouldn’t stop you for giving this song or the mixtape a quick download. Listen below.
