I live by a pretty simple rule: if Ice Fang drops, I listen to it. He hasn’t let me down since, and this latest single seems to not break the cycle! What kind of heat does he have in store for us today? Let’s find out now!
This is the brand-new single by MC Ice Fang, produced by Ice as well. And in this two minutes and 41 seconds, we get a track that’s a combination of skeletal, hardcore, and ambient all in one! Let me explain!
When we discuss the production, we have this consistent vocal harmony of that classic song turned into a loop. As this runs throughout the track, it’s accompanied by some elegant piano keys that feel theatrical in execution!
There’s also some plucked strings in the background and what sounds like super subtle drum beats that feel designed just to give the song some much-needed texture and skeleton, so to speak, to wrap this whole beat up!
From the stripped-back layers to that ambient-style vocal loop to the roughness of the instrumentation, this song literally has all elements described above: a trio of sonic blends all rolled into one amazing song!
As far as the actual rapping goes, I don’t think I’ve heard ICE so energetic and charismatic until now. He’s done playing it safe, and he wants to show the audience his versatility, his energy, and how well he can rock a joint without the help of anyone else, and he nails the execution!
This song brings out a fire in Ice that elevates all his best qualities!
I’m talking about that strong and brash lyricism, those heavy-set bars! The fluent flow and strong wordplay that come together and blend with the instrumental in a unique display of MC x Beat synchronicity that you don’t hear every day!
He doesn’t let a single second of this beat go to waste as he goes between his killer verses and his hypnotic choruses (that he also executes himself).
He’s really an all-rounder. He can make the beats and rap over them! Not many can say that. If this new aura is a sign of things to come, then count me excited!
