Okay listen, summer just got a lot hotter because our icy sis Saweetie is back, and she did not come to play. On Friday (July 18), she slid back into the game like, “Y’all missed me? Good. Here’s a bop to remind you who the baddest is.”
Enter: “Boffum.”
Now I know what you’re thinking. “Boffum”? Yes girl. As in, why settle for one when you can have boffum? A rapper and an athlete? Boffum. Money and peace of mind? Boffum. Tacos and margaritas? BOFFUM. It’s a lifestyle baby.
Produced by J. White Did It (aka the beat whisperer behind Cardi B’s “I Like It”), this track is a full body twerk warm up. It’s slinky, it’s bold, and it’s hella fun. Saweetie is out here reminding all the Icy Girls to keep your standards high, your edges laid, and your options open.
Let’s break down a few iconic bars real quick:
“Rapper, athlete I need ‘boffum’ / Don’t you ask me just get ‘boffum’ / How many on me? Like four of ’em.”
I mean… I’m hollerin’. She really said “Don’t ask me no questions, just get in line.”
This is Saweetie’s first solo drop of 2025, and baby, she’s stepping on necks. Quiet? Maybe. Slippin’? Absolutely not. Because she also announced that her new EP, HELLA PRESSURE, is coming August 1 via Warner Records. And we’re not ready.
She teased it earlier this year saying, “I feel like it will really encompass who I’ve grown into over these past couple of years. Lots of stories to tell.” Translation: She’s grown, she’s glowed up, and she’s got receipts.
And she ain’t just releasing music. She’s collecting checks. Sis became a brand ambassador for Paris Hilton’s NYX Professional Makeup line (because of course the face card never declines), and she performed at the NBA All Star Halftime Show in February with E40, Too Short, and En Vogue. A true Bay Area princess move.
Oh, and did I mention she’s going on a four date Australia tour? That’s right. She’s taking the icy vibes global. Somebody get her a boomerang and a kangaroo because she’s ‘bout to shut it down under.
At 32, Saweetie is living proof that growth and glow can coexist. The nails are still long, the edges still sharp, and the lyrics? Still savage.
So go ahead and stream “Boffum.” Twerk a little. Manifest a rapper and an athlete. And remember: Life’s too short to choose. Get boffum.
Period.
