How Does Bandit Compare With His Earlier Singles?
Here's the run of singles leading up to it:

- "Bandit": out now

Some listeners call it his best since "Century". Others criticize the hooks and the lyrics.
What Else Is New in Rap This Week?
"Bandit" landed alongside Yeat's LUH LEAKYZ and Offset's "GMFU". It's a busy stretch for new rap.
(More: another recent rap release from Quavo.)
Why Does Bandit Matter for EsDeeKid?
It keeps a steady run going. He's put out a single every few months since Rebel, and his next project still has no title or release date.
We think "Bandit" is another step toward that project. That's just our guess: nothing about the project is confirmed.
