This song may not have anything to do with the Maya Angelou book of the same name, but Kembe X's "Caged Bird" shows off his poetic skill. Joined by TDE's Isaiah Rashad, the two trade bars on the smooth production. Kembe and Isaiah's dizzying multi-syllabic flows match well here, proving the two have great chemistry. Stream the song below.
