New York emcee LIFEOFTHOM enlisting seasoned expertise supervisor, producer, DJ, songwriter, audio engineer & report govt Plain Pat to provide his debut mixtape. Introducing himself off his first couple EPs Thomas & Robotic Jesus, he would go on to launch 3 extra in Ground 11 in addition to Room 44 & Cocotaso respectively. Nevertheless, the singles that we bought teasing Driving Blind & studying that the previous KIDS SEE GHOSTS supervisor was solely dealing with the entire manufacturing.
“Wasted” was a passionate alternative of an opener speaking about risking all of it for a plate & wanting plenty of stacks whereas the spotlight “forty second St.” that includes Lørd Skø takes a jazzier but soulful method instrumentally representing the uptown. “Arms” that includes Wiki proves to be one other favourite collaboration of the 4 working in additional sampling stripping the drums to speak about being the boss sort whereas “Overthinking” tackles the theme of study paralysis.
In the meantime on “Hittas”, we have now THOM over a soulfully cloudy beat speaking in regards to the lesson that each journey has to have the type of people that’ll stick knives in our backs simply earlier than “Night time” hooks up a drumless guitar so he can get married to the sport. “Cadillac” that includes jev. & Wiseboy Jeremy pairs the trio for a cool ode to luxurious car division of the Common Motors Firm whereas “Jeep” takes a extra cavernous method to the beat speaking about his obnoxiousness.
“G.T.F.O. (Get the Fuck Out)” begins the ultimate leg of the tape by addressing the individuals who wish to see him out of bounds whereas “Misplaced in Vegas” that includes Swavay speaking about being the kind to grab telephones & log into finstas. “XO Tour Life” jumps over a increase bap instrumental with pianos talking of cash all the time coming his means & “Jumpin’ In” finishes a very powerful entry of LIFEOFTHOM’s discography leaping up out the sting of his seat for $100.
Reinventing the traditional New York sound by mixing traditional increase bap rhyme schemes along with style blurring melodies, Plain Pat helps take the meticulously considerate pen & use of experimental cadences/flows that’s skyrocketed LIFEOFTHOM’s reputation to a very completely different stratosphere with no shade supposed in the direction of these early prolonged performs since all of them have their very own highlights. Driving Blind’s refreshing manufacturing is in contrast to any of Thomas’ earlier work & firmly stands behind the homie Lørd Skø in serving to pave a vivid future for east coast lyricists.
