Here’s a lil weekend bonus banger because the horns have been slapping me so hard they wouldn’t wait til Monday. “The Win” [below] is verified hype music of the highest caliber. Your boy Slim comes extra mediocre lyrically here, though not terrible. But the track is maybe the most expansive beat I’ve heard this year outside of the SlowMotion Sound camp. You can cop Slim’s mixtape The Beam Up 2 for free-ninety-nine but it’s not going to eclipse the atmosphere smashing through your speakers right now. If you’re the kind of ne’er-do-well that could potentially be involved in drinking competitions, or even drunken competition, this weekend you are gonna want this joint on repeat. You’ll be coming back with a double-u like it was ‘99 in Knoxville. Happy trunk-thumping ya’ll. -mw
