Son Raw is posting bare videos.
We are in rap’s reductionist phrase: less words per bar, simpler beats and atomized ideas re-arranged into near infinite combinations. Footwork maestros Rashad and Spinn know this and abide: if rappers ain’t saying nothing there’s no reason to listen to a whole verse when you can loop the best bars and drill them into your audience’s memory ad nauseaum. Futuristic chords borrowed from Detroit by way of London and a music video shot in the white girl-friendly climes of Brooklyn help too. I’m throwing a house party on Saturday: these are the sounds and scenes we’ll be playing and living around 4AM. If you bring it, they will twerk.
