Uzi seemed perfectly content to leak songs to YouTube, all but guaranteeing a future of disorganized archiving.
But last weekEternal Atake quite possibly 2020s first cosmic rap record was released.
Its the perfect voluntary quarantine anthem.

I Believe In You Kacy Hill feat.
Music signee keeps the track simple with a few sustained atmospheric notes and a light backbeat.
Ive been caught with my pants down.
I didnt stock up or get in on the Coronavirus pandemic panic buying.
I worry about the physical and mental crash that will result from the adrenaline of it all.
One temporary reprieve: The sounds of Grouplove’s “Expectations” in my headphones.
But selfishly Im grateful its arrived.
I promise it helps.
