- Looking at Bladee's newest album -- Cold Visions
Seemingly the final installment of Bladee's discography, littered with different callbacks and references to his Drain Gang collective's older works.

10000 years in the drain dungeon
what kind of bait is that?
maaan i kinda feel like yall be manifasting bad energy when you talk about bladee retiring it's like you want him to. like he just turned 30 that’s literally no age why would he just give up his career this early it'd be silly? i would not wanna assume he’s leaving music just based on a few vague lines in a song. plenty times on the record he’s also saying stuff like know i fell off but this the comeback, thought i’d quit i cant etc. end of the road boyz referencing a tweet he made in 2018 which def had ppl think he was quitting or worse but then icedancer sky rocketed him to new heights perhaps in a similar way cold visions is doing now. i think there’s def an ominous feeling to the album but fr i dont think he’s quitting and if he was i feel like he’d make a more official statement than just leaving it up for debate and interpretation like this.
personally i think he was mainly expressing self-doubt, resignation and being fed up with the way people treat him and his music in a way. which also makes sense as to why he would make so many call backs and references to his past work as he’s reflecting on his career and what he’s done and again, expressing self-doubt about it all but also kinda flexing and boasting about the universe he’s actually managed to build within his music. hopefully all the recent activity from him and the fact that this was such an energetic project dropped on his own label trash island means we’re ushering in a new era of some sort with more self-care and idgaf energy. no more self-doubt.
I mean I’m not fully sold on him retiring or anything. I’d love for him to keep making music, but I did want to make the video just to play into the idea that he is talking more about his life without music. I agree with that you’re saying though; everything is up for interpretation and that’s all music. I could have made the video talking about everything else in the exact opposite way because the album is so ambiguous. I probably I didn’t explain that well enough in the video!
30 is old bro
@@lovebugea Bro is disconnected from reality xD 30 old? Okay ill give you the benefit of the doubt, you may be saying 30 is old for a rapper.... Then why are these goats still killing the rap game? J cole, Kendrick, Future, Tyler the Creator, Drake, Schoolboy , Young Thug, 21 Savage, Lil Durk, Offset, Travis Scott, Quavo, Maxo Kream. 30 is not that old for a rapper considering a lot of these people pushing 40
@@lovebugea to a 15 yo 30 might seem old, to a 50 yo 30 is still young. either way i don't think it's a reasonable age to retire your career as an artist
deep research on references
Thank you!
the "Blade." tag on Sad Meal and some other songs is a tag that blades used to use, most famously in "My Magic is Strong" (song on DG Archive). The title "KING NOTHINGG" is a reference to "King nothing, I am nothing" from Hotel Breakfast
Additionally, Bladee says "I'm in Philly, always sunny (I'm in Philly like I'm f1lthy)" which is a reference to Lordship, specifically the lyric "I'm in Philly like I'm f1lthy"
There's a bunch of "333" tags on the album, the most notable example in my head is Red Cross, he says 333 a lot throughout. the "3, 2, 1" countdown he uses a few times in the album gets chopped up to reference 333 tons. The 333 references aren't just the album, it ties a lot into his "religion" I suppose & just his general beliefs. Both outros are also 3 minutes and 33 seconds in length
Honestly tho, the blade tag is honestly easily my favourite callback on the album. For an album that feels like such a return to form, it's like the cherry on top and it's so awesome to hear in a 2024 song
Blud every time Bladee drops an album theres at least one mf who drops a vid like this
his first hit into dust was about him giving up on music lmaoooo
its not that deep brother
nah this title is so bad
But did u click? 🧐
@@jojoeljefethumbnail made us click
Bro nobody even cares about outros or intros, i dont think bladee would fk with his fans like that with subliminal messaging in his outro lol. if hes gonna retire he will just say it
hitting the big 3-0 changes a man
No.
