XV ‘Stone Cold (3:16)’ (Recipe Freestyle)

Wichita, KS., artist XV drops a freestyle to Kendrick Lamar and Dr. Dre‘s ‘The Recipe.’

I’m sure once wrestling fans saw the title and cover art knew exactly who this track referenced. If you don’t have a clue about WWE, there was a wrestler named Stone Cold Steve Austin who lived by Austin 3:16 (“I just whooped your ass!”). The broken glass sound at the beginning of XV’s track, is actually the beginning of Austin’s ring entry theme music. Not only did XV use a play on Austin’s name, he used the 3:16 to rep his area code. He mos def killed the entire use of Stone Cold Steve Austin and Austin 3:16. Also, did his thing on the track.
