Swerve is one of my favorite ‘break thru’ artists of 2012. If I was to have a label, without a doubt Swerve would be one of my first signees. He has such a laid back flow but with a great conversational and personal delivery. This remarkable cut is coming off his forthcoming Cold Winters & Warm Whiskey 2. Can’t wait…
There is a lot of irony to be had by me posting this cut on Thanksgiving. As Rav. P and Swerve ready there Weed & Wine EP. A lot off ebbs and flows of emotion put into this one, but in the end, just when you think you are going to give up, you think of a reason to move on. And that’s what I feel this song is about…progression in the face of adversity.
In the freshest way possible, Swerve and Rav.P remind us that we should lend a helping hand when possible. The beat by Soulful is just that…soulful and very smooth. This is music you can truly sink your teeth into. The dup are putting a collaborative EP out later this year so make sure you watch out for that.
I am typically not the one for a mellow joint, but this track here hit me at the right time and was done right. The horns and the production on a whole is just too smooth not to love. If you are feeling this track, check for Swerve’s upcoming album, The Barrelhouse, which drops on July 18th.
