These lead-up singles are coming together to create the ultimate hype for what could be one of the dopest albums of the year! These two together create such a fantastic mix that it’s undeniable! Let’s get to it!
This is the brand-new single by MC J Scienide and producer Giallo Point. This time around, they have MC SonnyJim alongside them to help bring the vibe to the track!
Starting with the production, we have a more mellow and lo-fi-adjacent influence this time around with those soul-inspired drum patterns, those wavy/wobbling back-and-forth synth chords, as well as those intricate and high-pitched keys that all come together to create an angelic and beautiful soundscape that is felt through the whole body!
This track reminds me sonically of the Mac Miller album ‘Swimming’ with those spacey and otherworldly elements that give goosebumps across the body!
I love how diverse and creative Giallo is with his production as this new single teases us about what could be a massive palette of sounds to expect on the official album!
To the MC part, it starts off with J who brings that fun, smooth, and passionate verse to the forefront! As he was on the other single, he has that groovy sense of rhythm and conviction in his bars that makes him sound like a live performance!
He’s got that cool energy and mastery of flow and extensive vocabulary at his disposal to circulate any type of bars and wordplay he wants!
I love how he maintains that slick and consistent dynamic delivery across his verse, not being exactly slow but not too fast-paced either, just perfectly in between rocking his pen game in his own creative and original form!
On the other hand, we have Sonny who brings a lot more of a methodical and heavy-handed approach to the song.
His bars are more concentrated and raw in comparison as he slowed the track down to spit his batch of street poetry and does so effectively!
He showcases his trademark in-your-face pen game, rough-around-the-edges demeanour, and ruthless pen game that forces you to feel the word he spits.
I think he provides a rather interesting contrast to J, and together they give the best of both worlds across that bright track of Giallo and give the audience a little something of everything!
So, if you haven’t heard the single yet, make sure you check it out NOW! You won’t be disappointed!
