CEO Trayle has dropped his first new single of the year. After an action-packed 2022 that saw the release of two standout mixtapes — The Collection and his annual Halloween project, HH5 — as well as the FADER-premiered Vier EP (not to mention a Gen F profile), Trayle has returned with “Brody Trippin,” a villainous cut featuring Baby Drill.

Over a maniacal beat that would’ve blended well into the ghastly backdrop of HH5, the two Atlanta emcees trade verses, firing verbal warning shots at anyone foolish enough to go against them. “Your momma said don’t hang with us, we criminals,” Trayle raps mockingly near the end of the track. “N****s don’t talk that shit on IG, post subliminals.”

In the song’s Decat-directed video, Trayle and Drill fire up their power tools, donning black latex gloves as they prepare for their next heist. Watch it above.
