“Nuketown” is the first official collaboration between Ski Mask the Slump God and Juice WRLD, who affectionately refer to each other as “Evil Twins.”
The song’s title is derived from “Nuketown,” a multiplayer video game map that appears in all five installments of Call of Duty: Black Ops, the immensely popular first-person shooter video game series. After a match on “Nuketown” concludes, a massive nuclear explosion occurs, which Ski Mask and Juice imitate with their aggressive scream rapping on this track.
Ski Mask has previously referenced “Nuketown” in his music, such as on 2016’s “I Like Bricks,” in which he raps:
Like this Nuketown, get a nigga hit quick, pew (Quick)
Ski Mask first previewed “Nuketown” on September 1, 2018.
