Summer is here, what better time to enjoy some nice, juicy fruits? LA's most on-fire female rap duo, Flyana Boss, has dropped their newest and highly anticipated single after weeks of TikTok teasing.
I'm entering Whole Foods. It's a Sunday. Sophie Anderson. I'm walking to the fresh fruit section to get some tangerines. Flyana Boss, Los Angeles' top burgeoning hip-hop duo, released their latest single "Mango Bananas" this week. I figure the produce section has to be the most fitting environment to experience this track for the first time. I am correct.
Produced by LA-based Marky Style, "Mango Bananas" opens with thematic, 50's reminiscent brass in the production, setting the stage for a very bold track. The drums come in instantly with full force, along with a revamped, cleaner brass section, then Flyana Boss delivers their clever chorus with an undeniable heat. Using the fruit kingdom as cheeky euphemisms, the witty duo details just how appetizing they are to their male admirers. Full of attitude and punchiness, these boss women prove they know how to get us all riled up.
The duo, made up of Folayan from Dallas and Bobbi repping Detroit, has been releasing music together since 2019, and they have amassed over 1 million streams collectively on their last 3 singles alone. Blending the best of Detroit and Dallas, these two classically trained musicians have come together to create something truly groundbreaking. I actually had the great pleasure of witnessing Flyana Boss perform live at Los Globos back in May, and if you're vibing to them just through your headphones, you need to get your a$s to the live show, because they had the whole room completely on fire. Add "Mango Bananas" to your Summer playlists, keep Flyana Boss on your radar, and see if you can keep count of all the fruits in this track.
