"Peaches & Eggplants" is a song by American rapper Young Nudy featuring his cousin, Atlanta-based rapper 21 Savage. It was sent to rhythmic contemporary radio on May 16, 2023, as the lead single from Nudy's fourth studio album, Gumbo (2023).[1] The song was produced by Coupe, who wrote the song with the two artists.

Composition

The production of the song contains a "pounding" drum, as well as synths.[2][3] Young Nudy also imitates gunshot sounds in the song.[4] Peter A. Berry of HipHopDX described the song as seeing the rappers "skitter across a subdued, yet ominous soundbed for a tongue-in-cheek strip club anthem that feels like Nudy's own twist on a Juicy J song."[5]

Critical reception

The song received generally favorable reviews. AllMusic described the production as "updating the tense simmer of some of the Neptunes' best late-aughts productions."[2] In regard to Young Nudy's vocals, Andre Gee of Rolling Stone stated, "Even when he simulates gunshot bucks at the end of 'Peaches & Eggplant,' with 21 Savage, it sounds like he's being just forceful enough to be felt, but not so much so that he wrinkles his shirt.[4] Nadine Smith of Pitchfork commented that the song "sounds like it could have been ghost-produced by BeatKing––it's a beguiling piece of strip-club minimalism propelled by little more than a pounding drum and a noodling synth line."[3]

Remix

On September 8, 2023, Nudy released a remix for the song featuring fellow rappers Latto and Sexyy Red.[6]
