T.I. & Rick Ross “Pledge Allegiance to the Swag” (Listen & Download)

Having already made his major play for radio love on "Got Ya Back" and done the soulful thing on "Ya Hear Me", T.I. is getting back to his signature grind sound on his new "King Uncaged" joint "Pledge Allegiance to the Swag", a quasi-banger that uses some more elite J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League production and a Ricky Ross verse to craft a certified head-nodder. It's no "What You Know", but it'll do for now.

Like I said, overall it's a nice track, and I'll forgive Tip for continuing to use the uber-played-out "swag" considering he essentially invented it (like T-Pain can still use auto-tune), but I'm actually far more interested in the intro and outro than the verses. First, I don't own a jet, but I'm pretty sure filling one up is a little more complicated than flipping whoever "Dre" is the keys and telling him "nigga gas up the jet." And on the outro, T.I.'s absolutely right when he says he's got more money than you, he just better not pull that "let's compare bank accounts" boast with the wrong folks. The dude's not even in the top ten richest rappers.

For everyone else who doesn't pay attention to random details like me (a.k.a. everyone), turn up the volume and enjoy.
