While Shake and her 070 counterparts – PHI, J Sebastian, Yung Rose and Ether – continue to buzz about their local Jersey hip-hop scene, the group is slowly starting to creep around territory outside of the tri-state area – and with good reason. The production in many of Shake’s tracks boast a (familiar-sounding) hazy, snare-happy trap beat, but the artist’s genre-warped, baritone vocal spits and gritty realness land her in a category of her own.

But I don't wanna go out lonely
Right now I needa grow
And no one's gonna do that for me

Where she slept last night, yeah
Where'd you go, yeah
When the sun came down?
Karma knows

Fire's hot, don't you let it go out, yeah
Fires hot, babe, don't you let it go out, oh
Where did you sleep last night? (Last night, night)
Where did you sleep last night? (Last night)
Oh, where did you sleep last night? (Last night)
Where did you sleep?
The pines, the pines, the pines
Where the sun don't ever shine
Shine, shine
Where the sun don't ever shine
Shine, shine
Where the sun don't ever shine
Shine, shine (shine)
Yeah, you can keep your bad advice, yeah
She was on me like white on rice

So sorry it'll 'cause another bad fight
