Teddyride’s latest release, Gun Shot, has stirred up a storm of mixed reactions, with fans and critics divided over its quality and timing.
One major talking point is whether Teddyride released Gun Shot too soon after Wleesayma, his recent collaboration with CIC. Some fans believe he should have allowed more time for Wleesayma to gain traction before dropping a new single. They argue that the back-to-back releases have diluted the impact of both songs.
Beyond the timing issue, Gun Shot itself has received mixed reviews. Some listeners appreciate its high-energy beats, while others feel it lacks depth compared to Teddyride’s previous hits. One unimpressed fan bluntly described the song as “complete noise” and went as far as saying:
“Teddyride need to leave music benay, bcos lay other music la really noise. Lay man can’t make it ah. Gunshot, I dodge it.”
For a well established artist like Teddyride who has released multiple hit songs in the past, the debate over the lyrical composition and timing of his latest single should trigger a reminiscence on what are things he can do to improve and do better next time.
Despite the criticism, Teddyride still has his loyal supporters who believe he is simply experimenting with new sounds. But the debate remains: Was Gun Shot a rushed release, or are critics being too harsh?
