With his new single, “AINT NO NUFF,” up-and-coming rapper/producer SelflessWayz is continuing the tradition of Detroit as a center for unadulterated, genuine hip-hop energy. SelflessWayz, who is well-known for his do-it-yourself style, maintains complete creative control over his sound by writing, producing, engineering, and mastering his own songs. His music is a reflection of his commitment to craft and his profound admiration for the pioneering greats of classic rap.
Inspired by the storytelling, lyricism, and production of the genre’s legends, SelflessWayz grew up surrounded by the sounds of hip-hop’s heyday. His music clearly reflects that influence, but he adds his own contemporary spin by combining hard-hitting trap sounds with gritty Detroit club energy. With singles that highlight his distinct blend of street gritty, catchy hooks, and club-ready beats, SelflessWayz has gradually gained traction since he started putting out music in 2022.
Inside “AINT NO NUFF”
“AINT NO NUFF,” his most recent album, is a perfect example of that aesthetic. The eerie bell melodies that open the track immediately establish a gloomy, mesmerizing atmosphere that permeates the entire song. Rolling hi-hats add a bouncing groove that keeps the energy flowing, and booming 808 basslines and sharp snares cut through the mix. The production is heavy and tight. The song is further enhanced by snare rolls and deft transitions, which give every drop its full impact.
SelflessWayz’s signature sound—dark melodies, hard-hitting drums, and a sharp lyrical delivery—is cemented with “AINT NO NUFF,” which transforms Detroit’s underground edge into a contemporary, club-ready sound. It serves as a daring reminder of why he is among the most intriguing figures in the independent rap scene.
Selflesswayz created every component of Ain’t No Nuff. This covers sound design, publishing, mixing, mastering, writing, performing, and producing.
SelflessWayz is creating a self-sustaining movement rather than merely releasing songs. His ascent out of Detroit’s underground is just getting started, if “AINT NO NUFF” is any guide.
LYRICS:
-Voice Tag-
Got the city off my back with this one…
-verse 1-
Get cha freak on like you tryna give a fuck
I don’t give a fuck
We all know squirrels get a nut
So baby open up
Let me run them guts
Imma eat it up
Ion fuck with runners
Imma walker when I eat it up
Kill the pussy
Cold case
Neva gotta heat it up
Ion trust a lot but I believe in us
When you reaching back it’s me you
Grabbin not them exes
Put them reasons up
Love when you arch ya back saying you ain’t deep enough…
Ya past didn’t last
Y’all ain’t speak enough
I’m here for the long haul
Geared up til the seasons up
You my soul food
So soulful so noble
If I got you out a bag I was at whole foods
Told fools, eventually we would be filthy rich…we out the mud and we
clean
Like the cleaners that the Asians get
They can miss us with the hatin shit
I’m tryna feed you with the grapes I get…
-chorus-
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a barbie fuck with a Ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends
I’m on my grown man
Bitch still playin in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team
I’ll take a lady in the mean
I’ll take a lady in the mean
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
Fuck with a real nigga den
Say u want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a Barbie fuck with a ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends

Bitch still playing in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team

-verse 2-
Say you want a sugar daddy

If you got a real nigga he ain’t show up
Gone stick ya tongue out
He a roll up
If a nigga hip
He ah split like a Dutch
Thanks for the thoughts
That came through clutch
You can keep the guts
they ain’t hittin on much
Know how ya roll
Loose back and front
What a waste of a cunt
Better know ya part like a fuckin lace front
You on first down tryna kick a fake punt
If you want a mill
then you better take a lunch
Ask Salem bout the touch
It’s a bully in the punch
Make a fool raise up
Like it’s a pulley in the cuffs
Hood on his back
Cuz the hoodie on him tuff
Naw don’t trip
He just putting on his buffs
-chorus-
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a barbie fuck with a Ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends

Bitch still playin in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team
I’ll take a lady in the mean
I’ll take a lady in the mean
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
Fuck with a real nigga den
Say u want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a Barbie fuck with a ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends

Bitch still playing in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team

Ass in the air she a Scorpio
Lady in the streets
At home she a freaky hoe
She be getting low
Tryna get a rise out a nigga
She be needing doe
That’s what you need me fo
Oh no

You gone have to throw it back some mo
Let a nigga get a tootsie roll
That’s what a stretch mark could be fo
With a watermark the wood can grow
The wood can splash
Hover dam that ass
Act right and you can have some cash
Don’t ask me for shit off top
I know you after bags
You already after aftermath
Ain’t even had a bath
How’s that for laughs
How is that gone last
With ya trashy ass
-chorus-
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a barbie fuck with a Ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends
I’m on my grown man
Bitch still playin in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team
I’ll take a lady in the mean
I’ll take a lady in the mean
Say you want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
Fuck with a real nigga den
Say u want a real nigga
Fuck with a real nigga den
You a Barbie fuck with a ken
Stay the fuck away from my ends
I’m on my grown man
Bitch still playing in the sand
Hoe still stuck in a dream
Hoes get ran by the team
