"MexikoDro pulls up to a Texaco gas station in a vintage Chevy Monte Carlo the color of blue raspberry cotton candy. He steps out of the spotless whip in slow motion, wearing a Dickie jumpsuit with a wash rag in his hand that makes him look like he just finished a shift at the autoshop down the road."
"If you're nostalgic for a more insular and country era of ATL rap, "No Date," with its video and horn-blaring trap beat that calls back to the heyday of Shawty Redd, might give you butterflies."
MexikoDro arrives at a gas station in a vintage blue Monte Carlo, buffing his rims in a Dickie jumpsuit. His music video for "No Date" evokes early 2000s Atlanta rap with a trap beat reminiscent of Shawty Redd's work. During a video call, he expresses frustration with his phone connection yet shares that he's celebrating after a court appearance. He distances himself from the term 'nostalgia,' emphasizing his childhood memories of Atlanta, while also revealing a deep longing for the city's past rawness and musical authenticity.
