And super forward.” A camera quickly found Dej in her seat, beaming, her own mother at her side.

“You’ve been very, very interesting to me. And a special shout out to Dej Loaf.” Applause swelled from the audience. “To BET, thank you for always supporting women in hip-hop,” she said, and then broke her pageant poise with a furrowed brow and a few slow-rolling, carefully chosen words. She invited her mother up to accept the award with her-an unexpected gesture from the larger-than-life star. This June, Nicki Minaj took the stage at the 2015 BET Awards to accept her trophy for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist. Both artists match DeJ Loaf's spirit and street fortitude, with Remy Ma coming out with the hardest bars: “Come to your P’s, hit you in your lobby/ I lay a n**** down if he try to rob me.The music of Dej Loaf, whose “Try Me” is one of the year’s most surreal and unanticipated rap hits, is consistently resonant and surprising.

Spanning from coast-to-coast, YG, E-40, the L.O.X., and Wiz Khalifa have all release their own remixes to 'Try Me,' but on the hit's official remix, DeJ Loaf opted to recruit Ty Dolla $ign and Remy Ma. The record, however, has now become a street anthem whose effect isn't confined to the midwest.

You really do believe that DeJ Loaf is going to shoot up your whole motherfucking family if you cross her. The song's hook is everything: 'Let a n**** try me, try me / Imma get his whole motherfucking family / I ain't playing with nobody / Fuck around I'm a catch a body.'įor a pint-sized female rapper to lay down that hook and have it explode within a machismo genre speaks to her passion and authenticity in her delivery. 'Try Me,' the hit record from the 22-year-old rapper with an ear for melodic hooks, has served as street single for anyone with a bullying problem.
