RECOIL

Please note: MP3s are only kept online for a short time, and if this entry is from more than a couple of weeks ago, the music probably won't be available to download any more.
Jhene Aiko - "Snapped". "Baby," Jhene begins, "I got ya / I shot ya." She is a cold-blooded killer. She is deliberate and merciless. She is a girl who runs the world, who writes her songs herself, who takes no prisoners. The exquisite "Stranger" did not prepare me for this brutality. Look: I ripped the shit to shreds Now he's dead. Guess I'm a killa I try to tell 'em not a fighter but I been hurt many times I'm tired. There is no undoing the precedents. Throw another diamond in the fire. [website]
