Song of the Day: Shamir – On the Regular

Posted on
6 Jan 2015

At the age of 20 Shamir Bailey seems more comfortable in his own skin than most of us will probably ever be in our lifetimes. The hip-hop/electronic/can’t-quite-put-a-label-on-him artist out of Las Vegas, Nevada released his single “On the Regular” back in 2014 and the take-away is: ‘Here I am. I think I’m awesome. Take it or leave it.’ This is him on the regular, in his fringed jacket, with his whip, riding his exercise bike, and he doesn’t care if we’re on board or not (but, just for the record – definitely on board.)

And in case it went by a little too fast to pick up on them, here are some of the more amazing lyrical gems:

“Guess I’m never-ending, you could call me pi”

“Haters get the bird, more like the eagle”

“No multiple choice cause I’m the only answer.”

And my personal favorite:

“Don’t try me I’m not a free sample”
