"Swangin" is a song by American hip hop recording artist Stalley, released on March 26, 2013, as the first single from his debut EP.
The song, produced by Block Beattaz, features a guest appearance from hip hop legend Scarface.
Background
"Swangin" is a tribute to Houston's classic car culture, Stalley explained. "I know they're real heavy into the Cadillacs and the American muscle cars and the old-schools like we are. They kind of invented that swang, that swag, and that swangin', so I wanted to pay homage to those guys. There wasn't a better person to do it with than Scarface."
The song contains samples of Mint Condition's "U Send Me Swingin'" & G-Side's "Swangin" featuring Darrien and The Speed of Sound Choir, the song is from the album Starshipz & Rocketz produced by The Block Beattaz. Stalley's version incorporates the same beat and hook as the G-Side track.
Khari Nixon of The Source wrote of the song: "though its reminiscent of his former material, its slightly more captivating, and just when you think Stalley's laid back vocals will lull you to sleep, Scarface steps into the booth without a hiccup and lays down a near-perfect verse".
David Drake of Complex remarked: "Calling a song with a Houston rapper 'Swangin' is perhaps the least imaginative possible concept for a record. But it's the little things: Block Beattaz' nuanced, sparkling production sounds clear and labored-over, their attention to detail unparalleled."
