Clipse"Fast Life"
Clipse’s last album worked a Sin City palette: rich blacks, flurries of white, occasional splatters of red. From the jiggy synthesizer beat, courtesy of Scott Storch, to the money-tossing brags, "Fast Life" is the closest they’ll come to a colorful party track — but it’s still thick with menace. It’s supposedly the lead single from the forthcoming Re-Up Gang album, and the rhyme play is often dazzling; one highlight comes courtesy of Malice: “And the boy got swagger/ Pop’s a rolling stone — I’m Mick Jagger.” Not sure what that means, but with these guys, we’re just gonna guess it’s a cocaine reference.
