Tunnel Vision On A Guap Stack


Earl Sweatshirt “Quest/Power”

This track by Budgie & Samiyam is a gorgeous frame for Earl Sweatshirt’s older, richer voice – the tone is classy, sophisticated ‘70s soul, but warped just enough to feel surreal and slightly shabby. The shift into the sliced vocal loop midway through is a brilliant touch, and I’m always a sucker for rap songs that switch the beat up in the middle. Earl’s performance is understated, but his lyrics are as strong as ever, but now they hit with the authority of a dude who is finally out of his teens.
