Song Review: VVS – BOTTLE$

With each release, I’m more convinced that VVS is some kind of psyop meant to test the limits of fans’ blind idolatry and the industry’s willingness to appropriate hip-hop culture. How else do you describe BOTTLE$? The moment its “chorus” first dropped, all I could do was laugh.

A song like this is difficult to review because I truly believe it’s a joke and if you listen to it with that in mind it’s really quite effective. However, jokes tend to have a short shelf life and aren’t something I want to replay over and over again. Once is enough for a song like BOTTLE$. I got my fair share of chuckles from the horrible lyrics and the incessant “b*tches and bottles” hook was left rattling through my head (get it out!), but when it comes down to it this track deserves an awful rating. I imagine VVS would be pleased with that, too. After all, it fits their whole tacky schtick!

Hooks 6
 Production 6
 Longevity 5

  1. They gotta be a social experiment to see how far they can get with their gimmicks and ragebaiting

    5.25 (5, 6, 5, 5). Also, they also dropped an MV for Da$h a couple weeks back, what are your opinions on that song? It’s somewhat passable but too generic

  2. The female, lower budget version of Cortis. Serious contender for “enemies of the blog” right here 😒.

  3. “this has to be a joke” is exactly what I thought when I heard boompala lol,,, from hybe too??

    does vvs have fans? haven’t met them. tbh this reminds me a lot of the bad songs that were big on the radio in the 2010s

  4. Even as someone with certified questionable music taste who kind of enjoyed Purrfect, I couldn’t get past 30 seconds into this song before I had to turn it off. Surely all this experimenting at the boundary between noise and music will lead to some amazing art down the line, right? We can only hope
