Diligent and focused, David Versis is a part of the new generation of hip-hop. His music is as versatile as the wide range of influences that have shaped him to be the artist he is today. Being raised in a musical family gave Versis all the ammunition he needed to develop his own artistic identity. Apart from singing and rapping, David dabbles in a handful of instruments including piano, drums and bass, all self taught. His main instrument of choice though, is guitar: both acoustic and electric.
“I feel as though there is a certain authenticity within my music that utilizes my various influences, without compromising who I am as an artist. Hip-hop has evolved into a genre that not only accepts a wide range of sounds, approaches, and styles, but calls for it. While this has forced other artists to widen their perspective, I am naturally a product of a mosaic of musical styles.”
Influenced by a fusion of genres and artists, Versis is inspired by the legacy of greats from Biggie to Jimmy Hendrix, Outkast to the Beatles, Jay Z to Elvis Presley, and plans to one day achieve similar success.
David Versis music is lyrical, with heart. His sound is soulful, but progressive. His delivery is astounding and his content vibrant. You can live each experience word for word.
Check Me Out
David Versis Lyrics

One verse, no hook, uh
Check me out, sitting sideways on a parking lot
Looking like I circumcised the whip when I drop the top
Music drowning out all them fuckers that all talk a lot
What the hell you bragging for? Everything you got, I got
I don't ever drop, but when I drop watch what they jaws do
So don't cry for me, people stand in line for me
Shout goes out to Vandals, those muhfuckers would die for me
Y'all don't really want it with me and my team
Cause we're known to cause a raucous
Cause a scene on the scene
And you know you can't touch us
Our demeanor is mean
But your girlfriends love us, cause we're cleaner than clean
So my city better plug me make way for this new jack
These days, I can say anything, Cusack
Find my Eyes slanted, wherever Stiggy and Que's at
Screaming out thug life, listening to 2 pack
Whoa, I mean 2pac, shit is getting too dark
I rarely speak, but you should listen when I do talk
They try to outwit me, but I'm too smart
I throw an organ on the beat, like a new heart
I run tracks like a muhfucking Grand Prix
Plus, what my plan be, don't require a Plan B
I push it out of thin air, call it hands free
And they just sit back in Marvel, call’em Stan Lee
With girls with cup sizes the size of Stanley
Muhammad Ali, they can't hit what they can't see
So, I one up’em like Mario's life
I belong in your stereo
A stereo-type
In the opening verse of David Versis's song "Check Me Out", the rapper is clearly in a boastful mood, and he sets the tone by dismissing any potential criticisms from his haters right from the start. Seating "sideways on a parking lot", he's enjoying his stylish, convertible car, which he proclaims to have "circumcised" by dropping its top. As he listens to music blasting from the car, he ignores the naysayers who "talk a lot" and feel the need to brag about their possessions or achievements, insisting that he has everything they have and more. This confident attitude is further emphasized by the line "I don't ever drop, but when I drop watch what they jaws do", which suggests that his occasional releases are highly anticipated and leave his critics reeling.
In the rest of the verse, David Versis goes on to assert his dominance in the rap game, suggesting that he and his team are a force to be reckoned with. He dismisses any rivals who might try to challenge him, promising that they'll come up short, while also paying tribute to his loyal fans and collaborators, the Vandals. The rapper has clearly built up a reputation for himself, and he's proud of his achievements enough to declare that "your girlfriends love us, cause we're cleaner than clean". He ends the verse with a clever reference to the writer/director John Cusack, suggesting that he can get away with saying anything these days (much like Cusack's iconic film character Lloyd Dobler in "Say Anything").
Line by Line Meaning
Check me out, sitting sideways on a parking lot
I'm checking out my surroundings while I'm sitting in my car parked sideways
Looking like I circumcised the whip when I drop the top
My car looks sleek and smooth when I drop the top, like it's perfectly cut
Music drowning out all them fuckers that all talk a lot
I'm listening to music to drown out the noise of people who talk too much
What the hell you bragging for? Everything you got, I got
Why are you bragging when I already have everything you have and more?
I don't ever drop, but when I drop watch what they jaws do
I don't release music often, but when I do people are amazed
Fuck you, and the crews that you belong to
I don't like you or the people you hang out with
So don't cry for me, people stand in line for me
I don't need sympathy because people are already lining up to see me
Shout goes out to Vandals, those muhfuckers would die for me
I'm giving a shout out to my loyal fans who would do anything for me
Y'all don't really want it with me and my team
You don't want to compete or mess with me and my crew
Cause we're known to cause a raucous
We are known for raising hell and being wild
Cause a scene on the scene
We make a big impact when we show up
And you know you can't touch us
You can't compete with us or bring us down
Our demeanor is mean
We have a tough and intimidating presence
But your girlfriends love us, cause we're cleaner than clean
Despite our tough exterior, girls still love us because we clean up nice
So my city better plug me make way for this new jack
My city needs to support me and make room for my new music
These days, I can say anything, Cusack
I have the power to say whatever I want these days, like John Cusack in the film 'Say Anything'
Find my Eyes slanted, wherever Stiggy and Que's at
I have my eyes slanted and I'm looking for my friends Stiggy and Que
Screaming out thug life, listening to 2 pack
I'm saying 'thug life' and listening to 2Pac, feeling like a true gangster
Whoa, I mean 2pac, shit is getting too dark
Things are becoming serious, like the content of 2Pac's music
I rarely speak, but you should listen when I do talk
I don't talk much, but when I do, people should pay attention
They try to outwit me, but I'm too smart
People try to trick me, but I'm too intelligent to fall for their games
I throw an organ on the beat, like a new heart
I add a new element to the music, like a fresh and exciting heart beat
I run tracks like a muhfucking Grand Prix
I'm skilled at making music like a race car driver in a Grand Prix race
Plus, what my plan be, don't require a Plan B
My plan is solid and doesn't need a backup plan
I push it out of thin air, call it hands free
I make music with ease, like it's effortless and hands free
And they just sit back in Marvel, call’em Stan Lee
People are amazed and impressed by my music, like they're watching a Marvel movie directed by Stan Lee
With girls with cup sizes the size of Stanley
There are beautiful women around with large cup sizes
Muhammad Ali, they can't hit what they can't see
Like Muhammad Ali, people can't touch me because they can't see what's coming
So, I one up’em like Mario's life
I outdo my competition like Mario gaining a life in the game
I belong in your stereo
My music is meant to be played on your stereo, blasting through the singers
A stereo-type
I'm not just any ordinary musician, I'm breaking stereotypes and making a name for myself

Everyone criticising Warne but Malinga deserves appreciation for the sportsmanship spirit he shown
Went with Samuels to check if he was fine despite being in opposite teams in both league and countrywise
