The old adage “real recognize real” holds true once again as Rapsody shows some love to Ab-Soul.
Ever since he dropped f his latest studio album Do What Thou Wilt at the end 2016, Ab-Soul essentially disappeared f the face the Earth. News surrounding the self-styled abstract asshole has been scarce — in fact, he’s easily one the more elusive rappers in the game at the moment. Therefore, when he does emerge to deliver some new music, it’s hard to miss.

Today, Soulo dropped f “Dangerookipawaa Freestyle,” a signal that his promise a 2020 album might not be so far-fetched. And while it’s difficult to discern anything concrete about a possible release date, it’s clear that Ab-Soul’s check-in did not go unnoticed. Esteemed lyricist Rapsody took to Instagram to pay homage to Soul’s artistry, sharing a picture the TDE rapper alongside some genuinely kind words.
“Herbert IV!! Soulo ho!” she captions. “One my favorite people on this planet! god MC. That is all.” It should be noted that Rap and Soul’s friendship has already extended to the booth, specifically the song “2 AM” f Rapsody’s Crown EP and “The Law” on Ab’s aforementioned Do What Thou Wilt. Check out the homage below, and sound f — do you want to see another collaboration between Rapsody and Ab-Soul whenever the latter decides to drop in full?
