Dynamic duo EARTHGANG has made a few notable appearances in 2023, including features on Forest Claudette’s “Mess Around” and “Sometimes…” with Snakehips and Daya. However, on this New Music Friday, July 7, they took centre stage with their first single of the year, titled “Bobby Boucher.” Teaming up with Benji. and their Spillage Village collective, they deliver a funky new release that pays homage to the 1998 comedy classic, “The Waterboy.”
The featured rapper on the track, in his closing verse, references Bobby Boucher, the alliterate character portrayed by Adam Sandler in the film. The accompanying visual also contains nods to “The Waterboy” and features lyrics from WowGr8, including the line, “Growing up, might need to be the villain,” which alludes to Boucher’s memorable decision to switch sides.
“Bobby Boucher” is set to be featured on EARTHGANG’s upcoming EP, “EARTHGANG vs. The Algorithm: RIP Human Art.” The project is scheduled to debut on July 28 and will serve as the duo’s follow-up to their 2022 album “GHETTO GODS.” On that album, they collaborated with legends like JID, J. Cole, Musiq Soulchild, CeeLo Green, Nick Cannon, and Ari Lennox. The deluxe edition, released later in the year, included additional collaborations with Smino, Wiz Khalifa, and Curren$y. While it remains uncertain who will appear on the upcoming EP, fans eagerly anticipate what EARTHGANG has in store.
Conclusion:
EARTHGANG’s funky single “Bobby Boucher” sets the stage for their highly anticipated EP release, “EARTHGANG vs. The Algorithm: RIP Human Art.” With its homage to “The Waterboy” and energetic vibes, the track showcases EARTHGANG’s unique style and artistic versatility. Fans eagerly await the EP, which promises to deliver more of their distinct sound and potentially feature exciting collaborations. As hip-hop enthusiasts anticipate the upcoming release from this Atlanta-based duo, they remain hungry for the musical creativity that EARTHGANG consistently brings to the table.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
I’m reunited with, uh, all of my, uh, yeah-yeah
I’m reunited with, uh, all of my
I’m reunited with, uh
I’m reunited with, uh
Okay, okay
[Chorus: Benji.]
I’m reunited with, uh, all of my vices, I can’t
I can’t deny it, I still got fuckin’ problems, I try
I try to fight it, it don’t, ain’t try to hide it, go ‘head
Loc be my lady, I’m up a couple thousand
Playin’ roulette like Bobby Boucher
Wa-wa-water on a Tuesday for all this D’Ussé
I surely feel like I’m drunk
I probably drink the Kool-Aid, that shit be packin’ a punch
It’s like a jab to the face, I’m probably not gettin’ enough
[Verse 1: Doctur Dot]
Fuck what you heard, nigga shit, gon’ spin it
Been independent, still with my twin, he can finish my sentence
I don’t know her name, but she one of my bitches, number exchange
And I’m runnin’ up in it, no funny business, I ain’t on no weird shit, might probably spill this
I ain’t t-boz, and I sure ain’t chilli’, is it just me or the energy shiftin’?
Nigga growin’ up, might live to be the villain
When a nigga die, hope they put me on buildings
I’m out the space, you can never come near this
I heard your tape, but I really ain’t feel it
Fresh out the woods, where they follow my footprints
Credit store fucked up, know I got good dick
Swervin’ through the hood, brake screechin’ like woodwinds
I don’t think about much, I really just do shit
[Chorus: Benji.]
I’m reunited with, uh, all of my vices, I can’t
I can’t deny it, I still got fuckin’ problems, I try
I try to fight it, it don’t, ain’t try to hide it, go ‘head
Loc be my lady, I’m up a couple thousand
Playin’ roulette like Bobby Boucher
Wa-wa-water on a Tuesday for all this D’Ussé
I surely feel like I’m drunk (Yeah)
I probably drink the Kool-Aid, that shit be packin’ a punch (Yeah)
It’s like a jab to the face, I’m probably not gettin’ enough
[Interlude: Johnny Venus]
I’m fuckin’ laid in luck inside my spaceship truck with the ankles up (Ooh-ooh)
She like it long, she like it wide, and she sure love it rough
I can’t get a break, and she can’t get enough
After this, I’ma need-
[Verse 2: Johnny Venus]
Scotty come beam me up, come clean me up
Somebody come clean me up, on the scene I strut
I ease like water on leaves, I glide on beats, I fly, I swim, I ski
In eighty degrees, make these hoes scream
My nigga, please, my bank account got angel numbers
Can’t nobody save you but yourself
I listened to God and talked to the Devil
He’d do wonders for my health
I died on Friday, came back Sunday
Turned up Monday, man, what else?
She said I taste like mango, dress like Django
Still wanna eat me up
You the weakest link, no we can’t link up
Keep things untouched, don’t speak on such, I’m so in love
[Chorus: Benji.]
I’m reunited with, uh, all of my vices, I can’t
I can’t deny it, I still got fuckin’ problems, I try
I try to fight it, it don’t, ain’t try to hide it, go ‘head
Loc be my lady, I’m up a couple thousand
Playin’ roulette like Bobby Boucher
Wa-wa-water on a Tuesday for all this D’Ussé
I surely feel like I’m drunk
I probably drink the Kool-Aid, that shit be packin’ a punch
It’s like a jab to the face, I’m probably not gettin’ enough
