LISTEN: RL Grime’s ‘Always’

source: RL Grime

If you haven’t already picked up VOID even though we explicitly told you to do so here and here, RL Grime has dropped yet another piece that will hopefully convince you to do just that. ‘Always’ is a slow-burner, hiding under a chill trap aesthetic of bumpy beats and sixteeth-note hi-hat shuffles. It simmers and stews, with only a couple of lines — a repetitive ‘Always’ hook and an “I feel better when I have you near me” refrain throughout the song. We’ve seen a different side to the (previously) perpetually turnt up Grime with VOID, and we hope that more of it keeps coming.

Groovy.
