With his upcoming album On My Way 2 Rexdale on the horizon, Canadian rapper-producer Nav experiments with a fresh sound on his latest single, “6am Thoughts.” Tapping into the rising “sexy drill” movement, Nav teams up with New York’s Bay Swag and Cash Cobain, two pioneers of the style. Over a hypnotic, skittering beat, the trio unapologetically expresses their late-night desires.
“6am Thoughts” is the latest in a string of high-profile collaborations for Bay Swag and Cash Cobain, who first gained attention with their hit “Fisherrr.” Since then, Cash Cobain has been featured on projects by A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie, Don Toliver, and even received co-signs from J. Cole and Ice Spice. Their influence is steadily expanding beyond New York, with Nav’s involvement further showcasing the movement’s growing reach.
As the “sexy drill” sound gains momentum, it’s emerging as a dark horse for 2024’s next big trend, and Nav’s latest single could play a pivotal role in pushing the genre into the mainstream. Fans are eagerly awaiting what’s next from the genre and Nav’s upcoming project.
