refreshing throwback to the roots of Hip-Hop. With clever wordplay and an unmistakable old-school vibe, the track brings listeners back to a time when lyricism was king. It’s a head-nodder, layered with deep beats that allow the bars to hit harder with each listen. The storytelling feels intentional, reflecting on life’s strategic moves—much like a well-played chess game.
