Armed with attention-commanding and lyrically sharp bars, Phlow lets her words take the lead in her dynamic new visuals for “Reputation.” 

The Lagos, Nigeria-based MC receives ample screen time in these slick visuals from director Rcube, but it’s only right that her rhymes are the focal point. Her powerful prose gets complemented by sleek animations, sharp cuts, and tight editing, all of which is bolstered by the head-nodding, rugged production from Teck-Zilla. And for those wondering, yes, that’s a flip of Yvonne Fair's classic “Let Your Hair Down,” ringing out across the instrumental.

Just as the track itself was a strong introduction to Phlow and her commanding presence on the mic, the “Reputation” video emphasizes that she’s a rapper you better start following, lest you be left behind once she delivers more material. Be on the lookout for new music from Phlow, and the rest of her Str8Buttah crew for that matter, in the near future.

Lyrics
Reputation
I'm losing composure
by the season its not kosher
Steady reaching for on my toes
they on sofas
No prediction only God knows who will go far
So i'm religiously following
Playing my part
Heres what you gotta know about that phlow
I'm bout that life that get it now or lose it, strife
With sharp insight
and listening skills
what doesn't kill, they say
will make you stronger 
so i'm fit for the bill

Now I just
Let the beat play
I bet I will slay
cause I don't really care what they say
Them wannabe players
should put this on a replay
I cannot behave
When all I got is
time to kill it
burst through ceilings Make way

Yo I am so set
A go getter I go yes
get better that flow get
I work at it and no less
No concealing no fakes
no pathetic theres no rest
get high on that heat
I'm feeling ready for some progress

Tell em(3ce)
Imma let the beat save me
They don't even get
that I can't let nothing contain me
All I got is reputation
can't be taken from me
best believe that i'm about to set it off insanely
Give them bars a workout
Some PHE
An honorary doctorate 
I call it PHD
that doctored flow
I'm ill in it
I hope that you see me
Thats all I ask is give a chance 
In getting to know me

I'm losing patience though
i'm losing patience
asking for some rhythm and poetry
wheres the basics 
Know some people placing they faith in this
will we make it
Won't slow down i'm moving until we taste it

Until I get it right
until every single piece is sound tight
I mean until that progressive progression
that alliterations hits that mic right
Impossible cannot match our mite
Maybe she should give them what they want
is what they all say
but what if what they say the want is only child' s play
talking bout some chukka game
i'm so not about to play
Real essentially will trample fake is all i'm saying bae
