I've made myself sound so much worse than I am, Goldlink dropped the music video for 'Crew' a mere couple of weeks ago so this song is still totally relevant. Hell, I think all of Goldlink's music will be relevant for the rest of time. I'm properly in love with Brent Faiyaz's hook on 'Crew' though, singers with vocals like this get me every single damn time. So smooth. So effortless. And it just works, especially against both Goldlink and Shy Glizzy's "flows". This song is worlds apart from Faiyaz's solo work as well, which is absolutely wild to listen to in the same sitting as 'Crew'. I super hated Shy Glizzy's verse when I first heard it but now I find myself bopping so hard down the street when it comes on. You've just gotta learn to take this stuff not even mildly seriously. Had a chat with a girl I work with today about how she doesn't like rap, largely, because it's misogynistic. Despite how I think that's a sweeping generalisation anyway, you have to take it all with a pinch of salt - Desiigner admitted that he has literally no broads in Atlanta. Why so serious, yo?
