Following the release of his album *Tupac Shaikur,* Shai Coke has dropped the much-anticipated music video for “Vanguard,” featuring fellow Detroit rapper Ceo Stew. The video, like the song, is a powerful testament to their gritty lyricism and ambitious mindset, solidifying their positions as key players in the city’s rap scene.
Shai Coke, known for his unapologetic bars, continues to push boundaries with lines like, “I don’t even like being called bro, I am not your twin,” and “I’m not the same as Zaya Wade, but I’m really him.” These lines reflect Shai’s unique approach to the rap game, combining sharp wordplay with a bold willingness to say whatever comes to mind. He makes it clear that his focus is on success, not just the superficial trappings of fame: “I talk about money more than sliding, that’s what I’m into,” he raps. Shai emphasizes his desire to inspire his fans to seek financial independence rather than just following trends: “I want my fans to get money; I don’t want you to dance.”
Ceo Stew matches Shai’s energy with his own hard-hitting verses, making it clear that he’s not here to play. “Trying to create so much motion, $100,000 be my bad day,” he raps, highlighting his relentless hustle. Stew’s lyric, “A bunch of paper bent up on me in pockets fit a book,” paints a vivid picture of his lifestyle, packed with ambition and the constant pursuit of wealth.
The “Vanguard” video showcases the raw energy and authenticity that both artists bring to the table. Set against the backdrop of Detroit, the video is visually striking, blending gritty urban scenes with high-energy performances that capture the essence of the city’s rap culture.
For Shai Coke, who already has a considerable following, the release of the “Vanguard” video is another step in his journey to the top. For Ceo Stew, it’s an opportunity to further establish himself as a force to be reckoned with. Together, they’ve created a visual and lyrical powerhouse that’s sure to resonate with fans and critics alike.
