REMEDY - Diamond Blacc (Rap)  Creative pursuits have a way of exposing the real ones around you, and more importantly, the fake ones. That’s the message delivered in “REMEDY”, the latest from Diamond Blacc, who is clearing house of the those around him whose jealousy has surfaced to betray them. With warbling strings and a trap percussion, the track bumps, with crystal clear instrument separation and a cruising down the highway flow. There’s a 90s sensibility to it as well, and at times the brooding nature of the track and sonic landscape kind of reminded us of Coolio’s “Gangster’s Paradise” in a way we’re not sure we can explain. With a relatable message, especially for artists, and a knocking beat, this is one to ruminate on.

Best Lyric: “Haters talk a lot shit but I’m the one they wanna be.”
