OTF Ikey – Counterfeit

Melodically examining the violence in his city’s streets, Chicago rapper OTF Ikey learned all the best moves from his mentor Lil Durk. Bottling up his pain and lashing out at those who pretend to be something they’re not, Ikey shares “Counterfeit,” his new single. Emoting atop synth strings, ethereal choirs, and haunting piano, Ikey expounds upon his everyday struggle with lilting melody as he desperately tries to figure out who to trust. “Counterfeit” is the second Ikey single in two months to examine the realities of his home neighborhood, following the sinister “Dead Bodies,” which dwells on the consequences of street violence.
