Listened with a VPN. I'll wait until tomorrow to listen again but...

Not sure what I think. I assumed this would be the straightforward sounding joint I heard with drums and an easy to catch sample, and instead this sounds like much more of an album cut. This sounds so far from what I'd think for a single. I can hear myself enjoying this in the context of an album, but as a lead single I think it's a weird choice.

Definitely got me curious about the rest of the album.

Although I think the song is dope I feel the same way…was expecting something crazier but guess we’ll have to wait for the album

No doubt. And I wouldn’t be surprised if we got another joint next Friday too. This one is just. Dense. Can’t think of a better word right now. Experimental far left shyt.
