21 Savage Turns Up The Scary And Turns Down The Safety In Haunting 'Immortal'

Leave it to 21 Savage and his brutal brand of scythe-sharpening rap to give world the best scary song this Halloween. Today (October 31), he's released "Immortal" and it's the best tune to haunt cornfields to. The world originally heard a snippet of it in the trailer for Mortal Kombat 11 that dropped last year. Right now, it's here to bring you some slow-building horror. You're just imagining those footsteps coming up the stairs now as you read this.


21 Savage sets the mood early in "Immortal" by claiming that he "feels like the Grim Reaper." Then the shink of swords swiping off of each other rings airborne and 21 Savage gets to work over a creepy piano pattern and fast, tight bass drums. He raps about being immortal, like Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhes, and other slasher film villains who just can't seem to stay dead. Rhymes about NC-17 rated violence give him a terrifying presence that could make Michael Myers spin his wheel of doom again to hopefully find a much less scary target. We wouldn't blame you for sleeping with the light on right after listening to this.


21 Savage recently appeared on the remix to Normani's "Motivation." As a substitute opposed to a scary verse, the rapper opened up about how a new partner has him more in love than ever.


Listen to the exceptionally scary "Immortal" up above.
