Long-time collaborators K-Threat and Yung Chubbz aim high and hit hard with this single. Driving with a quickly intense and striking beat, a haunting backdrop of synths and recognisable riffs that rain down around you, the music paves the way perfectly for the weight and energy of the lyrical performances that follow.
Both artists deliver to the best of their abilities – the first verse captivates for that heavy and characterful vocal tone; the harshness of the sound as he spits these bars lets the ideas and references burst through with all the more impact. The second verse brings a smoother tone but a performance that’s no less intentional and compelling. The two work brilliantly together in creating dynamic but also attracting and holding on to your attention right the way through.
The final building block that helps make this an unmissable release in hip hop right now is the song’s hook. There’s something notably nostalgic about this partly melodic moment, the change in pace and the notes presented add a welcomed break and further the song’s inherent sense of identity and personality. It also makes for a satisfying resolve after the relentless outpouring showcased in the verses.
A mighty release and fortunately just one of many from these artists – and of many more to come. Well worth exploring at volume.
