Single Review | Jidenna - Classic Man (feat. Roman GianArthur)

Jidenna
Classic Man (feat. Roman GianArthur) - Single
Wondaland / Epic
Release date: February 3, 2015

By Shawal Ras


‘Classic Man’ is the dopest song of the (late) summer!

The Wisconsin-born Nigerian-raised Jidenna is a rapper with some helluva street swag. He is currently signed to the great Janelle Monae’s record label, Wondaland Records, and has produced two singles to date: ‘Love Live the Chief’ and the aforementioned ‘Classic Man’.

Set aside his Jay Gatsby dapperness and striking auburn hair, Jidenna’s track is pretty much the best thing you’ll hear at a bar right now (despite the fact that it has been around since February).

I mean, come on, it’s catchy at hell!

I can’t ignore the fact that it sounds a lot like Iggy Azealia’s mind-numbing numero uno hit ‘Fancy’ but ugh this song is my jam right now and it’ll slowly tinges within you sooner of later.

Listen to the track below and scream it with me: I’M A CLASSIC MAN!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
