I pride myself on my writing ability, but I donโt know if anything will ever top the comment I found on the interesting visualizer video that accompanied this track.
Braxton Boggswrote, โThis slaps harder than my dad no kizzy.โ
Thatโs it, music critique and reviews are done, letโs all go home. I seriously canโt stop laughing. That is probably the best thing Iโve read all of April.
Moving beyond this astounding testimonial, โWest Sideโ by Lil West is a track that scratched an itch that I hardly ever recognize. The track just hooks you in right off the back, and it is so deceptively chill that you would be forgiven if you completely miss the lyrical content.
Sex, being a player, dealing, riding, itโs all to this catchy, upbeatโฆ beat, that charms and just works. Lil Westโs hook really does the initial heavy lifting but once you get past that, his beguiling vocal character, the production backing his vocals, and the crisp, easy mix work their own magic and really have you enjoying the track.
Laid back, but still with a distinct character, this track is an instant earworm that Iโll forever associate with that absolute gem of a comment.
