‘Dead Man Walking’: Brent Faiyaz drops new single, excited fans say 'man don’t miss, sh*t is flames'

A few hours before the song’s release, the 24-year-old artiste had tweeted the song’s official poster and simply summed it up in one word, 'Tonight'

Grammy nominee Brent Faiyaz has dropped his brand new single titled ‘Dead Man Walking’. The American record producer was promoting the song from quite some time and, now the wait is finally over. A few hours before the song’s release, the 24-year-old artiste had tweeted the song’s official poster and simply summed it up in one word, “Tonight.”

The cover art of the song shows a “killshot” aiming at the legs of a random person walking without showing his face which we feel does justice to the title of the song. Faiyaz is gradually making his name as an experimental musician. Even his new song sounds like an experiment. The track starts real slow along with the lyrics and takes almost a minute to build-up. The lyrics of the song goes like, “Feeling pretty mixed up/But this life sh*t ain't all bad (She work)/Bloody, bloody murder/There ain't no second chances (Sh*t cray)”

Continuing their praises for ‘Dead Man Walking’, one social media user said, “I’m cryin and I ain’t heard it yet” Another fan added, “Lord knows I needed this” One fan got emotional and tweeted, “happy tears bc I been here since 2016 and wow bay you growin growin fr” One follower shared, “i didn’t realise this was what i needed rn man”
