42 Dugg and Rylo Rodriguez are back in sync, and this time they brought Lil Baby with them for a new song called “It Is What It Is.” The track feels like a clear callback to the early 2020 run that helped push all three artists into a bigger spotlight.
Built on a bouncy and confident beat, the song keeps things simple and effective. 42 Dugg delivers his sharp, street-focused lines with ease, Rylo floats over the production with his smooth but gritty style, and Lil Baby ties it all together with a polished verse that reminds listeners why his presence still carries weight.
“There’s no overthinking here,” and that works in the song’s favor. The chemistry feels natural, like artists who already know how to move together. It brings back the feeling of a time when these kinds of collaborations felt nonstop and dominant.
“It Is What It Is” sounds like the kind of record mainstream rap has been missing lately. It is catchy, confident, and easy to replay. If this is a sign of more music coming from this camp, fans have plenty to look forward to.
