Pablo Skywalkin: “Hot and Ready”Last week, I binged Flint rap menace KrispyLife Kidd’s new food travel show, a no-budget YouTube series where Krispy and his hungry ass friends chow down at a popular restaurant. It’s a little awkward—everyone but Krispy seems confused by the premise—but it’s pretty good. In the third episode, the guys make their way to viral Bed-Stuy slice shop Cuts & Slices, where Krispy contextualizes the pizza by mentioning that in Michigan all they eat is Little Caesar’s. I thought of that moment while I watched Pablo Skywalkin’s weirdly funny new video for “Hot and Ready.” The Detroit rapper, who’s been rejuvenated ever since April’s handclap-heavy Trapper Flow, turns up in the Michigan-born pizza franchise to put a goofy twist on their slogan: “Had to take my chain off it’s too heavy/When these hoes see it they got hot like Hot-N-Readys.” If I had to guess, Pablo probably freestyled this at 2 a.m. while waiting on his DoorDash order—though, in a way, all of his songs this year have that exact same energy.With artists releasing songs at a fast and furious pace, it’s difficult for the average hip-hop head to keep track of it all—no matter how tapped in they are. That’s why we created The Ones, a daily post to highlight the song you need to hear.Check out previous Ones, and listen to new rap from Pablo Skywalkin more on our Spotify playlist.
