Say What You Want And Be Blunt

Sturdyyoungin, Ohthatsmizz, and Zeddy Will “Trippin”

Maybe you can help me figure out something that’s been baffling me for days?

“Trippin'” is very straightforward, a bubblegum rap song in which three charming young guys flirt with the same pretty girl. It’s as wholesome as a song could possibly be while including the line “I’ma knock the coochie out.” Great chopped up Fergie sample, strong performances by a trio of young rappers, fun energy. It’s super easy to love this song.

That’s the context, here’s my question.

Midway through the song, Zeddy Will drops this verse:

If you tryna stay the weekend, let me know, girl it’s alright
Pretty in the face so you definitely my type
And for that, I’ll book your flight
So where you tryna go?
She said, “Let’s go to Turkey”, say no more, case closed

Turkey? Of all the two syllable destinations on planet earth, why Turkey? Is this totally random, or is there some Gen-Z cultural significance to Turkey beyond it being where guys go to get hair transplants? Why not, say, Toyko or Bali or Paris or Dubai or London or Fiji or Rio?

Is there some kind of Turkish tourism campaign aimed at girls under 20 on TikTok that I’ve never heard about? Is the girl in this song just a big fan of Erdoğan’s far right wing government? Are they big Eric Adams supporters?

It’s such a bizarre choice of destination in 2025, but it is funny to imagine this young dude booking the trip and arriving there with her and just being like….????

Zeddy Will “Yup and I Do”

And here’s another one from Zeddy Will, all by himself. And once again, it’s an ultra horny song that somehow seems wholesome if just because it’s not misogynistic. There’s nothing profound going on here, it’s just a song about being excited about giving and receiving head. But here’s a positive energy and cool attitude in this music, and it’s not calling attention to being a Very Good Boy relative to anyone else, or it’s not dorky. It’s just flirty, fun, and overflowing with lust.
