(PHOTOSYNTHESIS)

Man, I’m crying tears of happiness right now. We got a normal, not chopped, title name! Consider my 2025 made. While I’m riding this cloud nine, we’re about to go talk about this brand-new single by a team that has more than proven themselves over the year with singles and an EP, and with this new single, I’m feeling them more than ever! Let’s talk about it!

This is the brand-new contribution by MC FLYG and Producer SPCL_CHRCTRS, and with this track that’s just shy of two minutes, we hear both of them on top of their game unlike any other time!

Let’s start with FLYG today. Who from the get-go starts off STRONG! From the opening line, 

‘The Sun rays, shining down on my face/I put both hands together and say my amazing grace’

To me, that could mean both (he’s praying with both hands saying grace) and the fact that he’s trying to cover his face from the sun rays! Possible double meaning, 100% dope intro! But the track goes on!

‘Like Lil B/We’re based /Masterchef Chop/I still wonder why /Professor X thought the leader should be Cyclops’ (dope line and pun and an ideal I actually agree with regarding Scott) ‘Hip Hop is a Culture, it’s not for everyone, so stop’

‘Some might watch me and wish for a life swap’

Bro, if I keep going, I’ll just be posting his whole verse on this track! There’s so much to unpack, reveal, study, inspect; it’s just wild. I keep talking about his evolution across these tracks, and this is more proof of the miles ahead he always seems to be from the shit he did before!

This is just under two minutes of some of the best one-liners I’ve heard yet, and the rest of the track is even more complex and colourful that I want YOU, the reader, to experience for yourself!

As far as the beat goes, SPCL shines us with his beautifully minimal yet angelic composition of that vocal loop that goes ‘The Sunshine, it brings light to our lives’ and that is one of the most gorgeous uses of sample I’ve heard in a minute!

And that, on loop alongside those sharp strings and those intricate keys and very subtle bass lines, it comes together in this amazingly skeletal instrumental that I could literally listen to for hours! 

FLYG ain’t lying when he says ‘The beat is incredible, like a joint from Cowboy Bebop’. He’s 100% right. This is a natural stress reliever compacted into one of the smoothest hip-hop songs you’ve ever heard!

Once again, this duo refuses to take an L and shines brighter than any sun rays could hope to! The chemistry, the fantastic lyricism, the rhythm of that beat— it all comes together to create the perfect single! Make sure you check it out today!
