New Music: Rae Sremmurd’s Swae Lee debuts impromptu Christmas carol
“But I had you all over my wish list…”
Swae Lee has had a monumental 2017, as further exemplified by his mega-successful collaboration with French Montana, “Unforgettable.”
While Swae Lee and his Rae Sremmurd cohort, Slim Jxmmi, are preparing for the release of their long-awaited SremmLife 3, which is set to drop in January 2018, the 24-year-old has shared a new gem, this time in the form of a melancholy Christmas carol.
Taking to his group’s Twitter, Swae Lee shared a clip of himself singing the emotive anthem, which details feelings of heartbreak and loneliness that occasionally go hand-in-hand with the holiday season.
“I didn’t have you under my tree this Christmas but I had you all over my wish list,” he croons, over a piano-driven melody. “Oh oh oh, you’re not under my mistletoe…”
Earl Sweatshirt was quick to compliment the new material, which has since been viewed over one million times on Twitter, writing, “bro please respect swag lee that christmas song is f—king beautiful.”
