Whereas it was simple to pigeonhole Younger Posse as a joke after they first emerged, final 12 months’s g-funk nodding Ate That discovered the right stability between humorous and superior. There’s an enormous hole available in the market for colourful hip-hop that doesn’t take itself too severely, and Younger Posse really feel uniquely outfitted to fill it. Due to this, new single Chilly is a stunning sidestep into extra maudlin territory.
It’s awkward to go from dancing by means of a Grand Theft Auto impressed wonderland to the drama of Chilly, however that is Ok-pop and issues transfer quick. The group has introduced singer-songwriter 10CM into the fold, immediately giving the monitor indie cred. And although they rap often on the verses, many of the music is sung in a delicate, melancholic manner. This may as properly be a unique group fully. I’m undecided if that versatility is thrilling or confounding. I suppose it may be each directly.
As for the music, Chilly is stable sentimental fare. At occasions it seems that it could possibly be an OST, and the cinematic music video follows that path as properly. The craving refrain and atmospheric manufacturing attracts affect from indie hip-hop acts like Epik Excessive and this throwback type is suitably nostalgic. The monitor drags a bit for me, however the refrain is fairly and the women convincingly painting the emotion essential to make this work. I gained’t be speeding again to this the way in which I did for Ate That, nevertheless it fulfills its goal in portray their musical palette with a unique hue.
