Kanye West expresses support for Jack Harlow by resharing his “Tranquility” single
Kanye’s most recent reactivation on social media comes with nasty shots directed at adversaries such as Adidas and Jerry Lorenzo. Still, his latest post takes an entirely different turn: supporting fellow rapper Jack Harlow. On Friday (January 10), the Chicago-born other reposted Harlow’s new single called “Tranquility” to his Instagram Stories, offering a rare moment of eager praise for one of the rappers from Louisville.
Originally released in late December, Tranquility made its streaming debut earlier this week. This seems to shift from Harlow’s previous catchy hits, “Lovin On Me” and “Hello Miss Johnson,” in that it marks a more introspective side with sparse production and raw lyricism. In his verse, Harlow spits, “Y’all boys lame shit killing me / Need to be reintroduced to humility,” as he otherwise confidently declares, “I ain’t lookin for no Hip Hop credibility / Give a fuck who feelin me, I’m feelin me.”
Next, Harlow hints at his next album: “Last project I was giving you conceptual / Next project I’ll be giving you exceptional.” This gets fans psyched about what they have to look forward to. Kanye’s endorsement of Harlow’s new work adds another feather to his cap in this growing respect between both artists, as Ye has previously nicknamed Harlow one of the “top five” at it today.
