There’s always a few songs that play on EMPIRE, whether it’s folks rehearsing or performing on the show. That Tiana Brown song she was dancing to at the beginning sounded like some old Aaliyah material, while Jamal’s piano performance before his interview was dope as well. But the song that took the crown from everybody was the in-jail recorded (Gucci Mane, we see you!) “Snitch Bitch” by Terrence Howard aka Lucious Lyon. The song apparently features Petey Pablo, who rose up from the grave for it, and the two delivered something for the skreets of the show. By the end of the episode, it was already playing on the radio. Not even Ludacris, the bitch ass correctional officer (his role on the episode), could stop it from being released.
Is it just us or is the first name you think of when you hear the phrase ‘snitch bitch’ Randy from The Wire?
