Yeah, fragments I'm trying to patch up the pieces. A little stagnant because the pack got me vibing too decent again they run up, we bust back. We even again. That's the mindset of the streets my people is in. Too many police and officers bleeding my camp. But what can we do? We only mobsters and needless to them. They try to poison us. Subconsciously weaken the binds. I can feel the toxins in the air, we breathing it in. Yeah, but that's enough of that. I'm just trying to double up, not double back. I'm just trying to humble up and understand shit. Gotta get my wisdom and become a man. Yo, I'm trying to visit the motherland. Invest until my castle and queen turned into wonderland. Acid dropping down in the stream that help the colors dance, blowing loud, smoking the breeze, feet in the summer sand. That sounds like what life is about. I know a lot, I'm still finding it out. Battle with my thoughts full speed, like I'm fighting the jousts hat off to the ethereal beings that heighten my prowess. Yeah. I'm sending mad love views at the top so I envision that's us. I'm a simple man. Minimallist as fuck. I always spread it with the fam when I get the cash out. So yeah. Hit the spliff and grab lunch when I'm on a beat to get a different class touch. Surprise her with that Louis PVC glass clutch and I need to match an iridescent monogram. Ocean Flow. It changed suddenly. Low key. This doy D got me hovering OD and can't ask me if we should scroll please. My *** just proceed. My ***. Just proceed. Yeah, just proceed.

about

He's back. After a break that felt like an eternity, Cuthead has finally awoken from his creative beauty sleep to check up on his home base Uncanny Valley with his new album THE DETOUR. To avoid overexciting everyone’s attention span, the album is spread over four parts. And he's definitely not coming back as a cheapskate since the album is full of gifts that true Cuthead fans desire. In other words, he does what he does best: Blasting out slick tracks that oscillate between laid-back underground hip-hop, sample heavy house and vintage acid, but with enough surprises along the way. The tracks were created over the last few years, including some jams from his live set that he made while travelling or in a hotel.

As soon as the typical cozy, warm chords kick in during the INTRO of The Detour Part 1, you immediately feel at home again in Cuthead's world, where it's always Saturday afternoon and laid-back jams drip out of the speakers (at least on two of the four parts). On top of that, Chester Watson from St. Louis (one of Cuthead's absolute favorite rappers) provided a feature. With his distinctive voice and dreamy flow, Chester explains in not one but two versions of PROCEED how to carry on and stay relaxed despite adverse circumstances. TOUR DE FRANCE, on the other hand, is a trapstrumental for the masses in which a hi-hat thunderstorm is intertwined with a wind sample that constantly twists around itself.
