In
‘easy’
,
dj poobloi’s
production style pivots once more as
Flowdan’s
signature deep vocals envelope us into the world of old school hip hop.
Flowdan’s
unstoppable rhythmic delivery sets the pace for the single, as the basslines and snares find themselves rising and falling around them, bringing the energy while still providing the space for slick, impactful lyrics.
Featured rapper
Flowdan
tells us about the inspiration behind the single:
“‘Easy’ was inspired by the panic spreading around leading up to the first lockdown. dj poolboi had the perfect instrumental for me to express my rebellious attitude towards the situation.”
