If you haven't seen it already, check out Lil Dicky's new song and music video, Freaky Friday.
Although Lil Dicky, aka Dave Burd, is not yet a household name, with his new music video and album coming out, LD will soon be considered one of the best.
Hailing from the suburbs of Philadelphia, Lil Dicky bases his music around his everyday life and many of his songs are created like a normal conversation between two people. Additionally, Burd interjects his songs with Seinfeld-esque social situations that make for hilarious lyrics.
In his music videos, Lil Dicky creatively recreates the scenes he raps about. In his latest video, Burd collaborated with Chris Brown and several other celebrities to show what it would be like if they switched bodies for the day. The lyrics are not only clever and funny, but also the music video is entertaining and fun to watch.
Lil Dicky is creating his own niche in rap music that has never been seen before. By incorporating comical lyrics into his music, Lil Dicky's songs are relatable to everyday life. One of Dicky's recurring jokes is about his upbringing as a Jewish Caucasian kid while most other rappers do not lead similar lives.
Now, with millions of views on his music videos and songs with features such as Snoop Dogg and Fetty Wap, Lil Dicky's new album will be in the spotlight. Should Lil Dicky's album get positive reviews bolstered by the success of Freaky Friday, I would not be surprised to see Lil Dicky's unconventional rap style be considered in the upper echelon very soon.
