The Ninja on this record

At 102 BPM the groove sits in that half-time pocket where cloud rap does its best work — the kick lands slow enough to feel like a drag, but the danceability figure doesn't lie: there's a swing underneath that keeps feet moving even as the top end goes hazy. In 2B the harmony leans bright while the mood tags argue among themselves, happy and sad and aggressive and relaxed all filed against the same record, which is roughly what it sounds like.

Energy at 8, yet nothing rushes. The room it builds is wide and smoke-filled, the low end doing most of the structural work while the two vocal presences trade the middle. It's a mid-set breather that isn't one — the sort of thing you slide in after something harder to change the air without emptying the floor.

Mixes well with

same key or a step away, near the tempo
