#rapfix cypher

This may as well be the fucking Beach Boys. Being so perfectly honed for summer, too short, and too sweet as it is.

Schoolboy’s lyrics amble, stutter, and screw in and out of centre-stage, having the decency to periodically bow out in favour of perfectly-aged, right-on-pitch soul samples – one form of pure high-grade bliss for another, low-life tales and soaring harmonies.

If there’s a radio commissioner with any decency out there, then there’s a radio station somewhere playing just this for the next 24 hours. If mid-level criminality is anything like as cool as it used to be then there are six sharply dressed men walking down a Los Angeles street with this playing in the background. If I can’t get a “cocaine is my hero” t-shirt within 5 working days I’ll turn my back on e-commerce for good.
