New Jack - Rice (Rap) Rice joins our roster this week with latest track “New Jack”, a classic braggadocious stuttin’ track. Sonically, the record reminds us a lot of 00s Timbaland productions, with the mysterious eastern flute and dreamy guitar strum giving us “Indian Flute.” Cutting through this is, of course, the slamming hip hop percussion that we expect from the genre, while Rice uses a synth harmonizer to give added weight to his vocals that serve as great ear candy. The track is accompanied by a music video that interjects spoken word elements where Rice chats on the phone about his rise. Coming in at a tight 2 minutes, we only wish the track was longer! Guess it goes on repeat. ;)
Best Lyric: “I’m a shark in the water, brand new coup with somebody’s daughter.”
